You have GOT to watch this video…The Austin Yellow Bike Project recently moved to new digs, and bicycling photographer/mad-skills-knitter/blogger extraordinaire Chainsaw Panda was there to capture it on video:

Some of the load-hauling contraptions are amazing — trailers bigger than a car, cycletrucks, extended-bed trikes and everything in between. It is jaw-droppingly amazing!

Hot damn! I particularly love the use of a roller bar on the back ot the large cargo trailers, so that they can be pushed by the rotating tire of a bike behind them. Very clever.
I got a kick out of the guy on the road bike with one small back pack. He was the Fred Sanford of the bunch.
Video is pretty good.
But I wish instead of crappy rap some normal music would be provided…
Looks like they’re doing more moving tomorrow:
Alek, to each his own…personally, I could have dealt with a little oldschool funk — nothing says moving by bike like some P-Funk.
I wish I lived closer to Austin…I would really love to give a hand!
Wow. The music was the bomb! That was the Fat Boys and they are old school fo sho. If you didnt like it you couldve fixed it easier than whining on here about your personal tastes( or lack of). All you had to do was turn down the volume and turn up your favorite Lawrence Welk show. If you didnt like the Fat Boys beat boxin you must be old
