Pimp my Bike

With gas prices at record highs, car culture has taken a turn for the creative. A group of Trinidadian teenagers in Queens, once famous for cruising the streets in big cars with hyped up sound, are facing the gas crisis by creating a new driving alternative.

I think this is amazingly creative, as well as future-focused. In a time when soccer moms are complaning they can't live without their Yukons and Suburbans, these kids have taken culture and future into their own hands and trying something new.

On a side note, can you imagine the calf muscles these kids will have after biking around with 100+ pounds of speakers?
