Purple Pedals camera bike in Denver during October

Kickstand magazine is hosting one of the five Yahoo! Purple Pedals cruiser bicycles in the Denver metro area through the month of October.

The purple bicycle is equipped with a solar battery powered camera that takes a photo approximately every 60 seconds and automatically uploads it to a Flicker account, thereby creating a visual diary of everywhere the bicycle goes.

Kickstand magazine, the national lifestyle publication that focuses on cruiser bicycles and the people who ride them, is based in Denver and is excited about hosting the Purple Pedal bike.

“There is such a rich bicycle culture in Denver and along the Front Range, there’s a lot for this bicycle to take in during October,” said Brad K. Evans, publisher of Kickstand magazine. “From cruiser rides downtown to rolling along the hundreds of miles of bike paths in and around Denver, the Purple Pedal bike’s camera will have a lot to record.”

The bike, paid for and equipped by Yahoo!, is part of the Purple Pedals Project and are not owned by any one individual. They are loaned to individuals who then take them on various adventures around the globe, the images from which get uploaded onto the Internet for all to see.
