trendcentral knows how to work dem street teams to the bone and come up with gems like the busbike. i wouldn't mind taking a road trip around the country in this thing. it's a hell of a workout, you're protected from the elements, and you could probably even hire manservants to hose you down and feed you grapes and gatorade while you pedal away that extra butt padding.

hopefully busbike will still be in business by the time i work up the resources to take a trip to brazil. but for now, i'll have to entertain myself with the newest trend in marketing/advertising/shilling - submedia's "moving motion picture" ads on herald square + 6th ave. it's only a matter of time before corporations lose interest in temporary branded metro pop-up stores and latch onto "street movies" instead. and thank god. cuz i really don't have time to trek out to the east village every time bombay sapphire decides to blow a chunk of their advertising budget to distribute liquor and sell useless kitsch for three days.
