    The end is the best part! I do a lot of riding in the spring & summer typically on trails but sometimes on the street as well. When driving, I’ll typically proceed with caution when passing cyclists hoping that this will set a influence the traffic behind me.

    Nice !

    Although I’m usually the one being not too careful on the bike :-s

    Lovely. That cracked me up. I missed the bear the first time concentrating on the white team passing the ball.

    I just posted this to my bike site as well. I was convinced that the bear was only shown on the 2nd half, couldn’t believe I’d missed it!

    I now know to never moonwalk while i’m cycling in my bear outfit.

    That’s awesome! And so true. I wish we could get some love for that commercial in the states. As an avid cyclist, I could use some increased awareness of my presence on the 55mph road on who’s shoulder I ride. That said, perhaps my orange Euskatel kit and rig do a bit more to differentiate than the black bear…

    Very clever indeed. Very important awareness message and that bear reminded me of the bear in The Pharcyde’s “Drop” music video. Check it out on the stairwell scene.

    Props to Spike Jonze. Out.
