Slow Bicycle Ride in Greece

From a 1961 Greek film, filmed on the island of Kos. Slow Bicycle Heaven.

Slow Bicycle Inspiration

Slow Bicycles are nothing new. Period. It's interesting when you view this video from Copenhagen in 1937, above, and the one from Holland in the 1950's, below, that there is no bobbing movement when they're riding. No exertion. Just easy transport.

Consider the fact that the bicycles were massive and heavy back then, too.


The Slow Bicycle Movement. We never went away and now we're back.

Slow Bicycle Rush Hour in La Rochelle, France

You don't get much more gloriously slow bicycle than this.
Bicycle rush hour in La Rochelle, France. The drawbridge was up and roughly 500 cyclists waited patiently for the bridge to go down.

Slow Skateboarding

More associated slowness from the Slow Bicycle Movement.

Slow Bubble Blowing Society

Sorry. Another Slow film. Couldn't help myself.

The Slow Balloon Movement in Green Major

Another installment wherein I test the limits of slow.

Slow Reading and Showering

The Slow Bicycle Movement is all about slow. How appropriate then is it that the founder engages in other slow activities. Including reading and showering.

2000 frames a second of pure slowness. The balloon popped so freakishly that I barely got wet. We filmed several popping balloons but this one was bizarre.
