Our sister publication, Bicycle Fixation, has just published a little photo-essay on the Artful Bicycle Racks of Los Angeles, part of our collective attempt to wrest the city out of its thralldom to banality, and to encourage utility cycling.

Whether these attempts succeed as either bike parking or as art we'll leave to our readers to decide. In any case, at their worst, they still represent a thousand steps forward from the situation of the all-too-recent past, and, supplemented by thousands of more ordinary bike racks that the city has installed in every neighborhood, they officially welcome the World's Most Efficient Machine to the city that is Ground Zero of Carmageddon. That's got to be something good!
