With all the fixed gear gangs crowding the streets like schools of fish, it's refreshing to see another side of bike culture with a slightly more sophisticated twist.  As bike-culture continues to grow at an astonishing rate with growing economic woes, the New York Times chronicles "a new pedigree" of bike and the lifestyle that comes with it: the Dutch bicycle. In Europe, the author notes, there is no bike culture--all cultures include the bike.  A nice article on a what might be the next "it" trend.  Also enjoy some wonderfully put together "dress codes for the Dutch bike."  See the article in its entirety here. *** Photo splicing thanks to Hypebeast.
