Just a quick post to lavish some praise on the new Go-Bike. Again invented by the Japanese, this little nifty fold-away bike is perfect for inner-city transport and when you don’t have a lot of storage space. Although this concept isn’t brand new, the Go-Bike is apperently the first fold-away that actually offers the performance of a normal bicycle as well. And the cool thing is that it actually looks really great!
If we were Japanese and living in the crowded streets from Tokyo, we’d put this on our early Christmas 2007 wishlist…

Sometimes, we find the ourselves browsing and scouring the web for the most insane things - and this all just because we’re bored… But in between the random stuff on College Humor and Kontraband, we actually some good stuff on other blogs that we read.
Anyway, so we’re really into cool and fresh photography (and my secret dream is to be a professional creative photographer and actually be paid for it) and whilst on one of our Operation: Erase Boredom missions, we found a photographer by the name of Jan von Holleben (funny name, don’t you think?). Very, very talented and overtly creative phtgrphr (that’s what Jan calls his job) and his various photo sets’ names range from “The Prayers”, “Necks”, “Bellies”, “Lonely Cars” and “A Playworld” to the one that really grabbed our attention, “Dream of Flying”. The last set is so creative and fresh, that it’s gotta win some prizes from somewhere - the concept is just totally insanely genius! Here’s a few of the samples:

After finding out that the Ghostbuster car was on sale, we just had to do a post about one of the original Batmobiles being up for sale as well. The Batmobile is set to go under the hammer at the end of the month and should fetch in the region of $75 000.
At the end of next month, one of four original Batmobiles built by custom car grandmaster, George Barris, for the 1960s TV series, is set to go under the hammer in the UK. The car was on show recently at the Autosport Show in Birmingham’s NEC no doubt, in part, to help drum up some extra interest. Apologies for the pic of the car below, since Batman and Robin actually look kinda gay…
