So it seems that frames made of bamboo are kind of hot these days. There are finished frames, do-it-yourself kits, courses, and charity organizations all offering bamboo bikes in some way. Apparently the material makes for a nice ride that’s stiff with a bit of flex. I’ve done some superficial googling for you:

http://www.calfeedesign.com - the triathlon model
http://www.organicbikes.com
I assumed that this was a new trend geared towards the LOHAS crowd. Well, wasn’t I surprised to come across this:
114 year old bamboo bike
I think these bikes are all beautiful and would love to take a bamboo bike out for a test ride.

I’m really enjoying the design and layout of your website. It’s a very easy on the eyes which
makes it much more enjoyable for me to come here and visit more often.
Did you hire out a developer to create your theme?
Exceptional work!

Do you have a spam problem on this site; I also am a blogger, and I was curious
about your situation; we have created some nice methods and
we are looking to exchange techniques with other folks, why not shoot me an email if interested.
