We are in the planning stages, so if you guys have any suggestions as to the route/date/time, hop on over to the thread over in the foldies forum and fire away! This one's gonna be in Pasadena.

So what's this fascination with foldable bikes? I don't think I got the memo...

I love bikes (all shapes and sizes) but was just wondering why the foldables are just so cool nowadays? I must admit that those Dahons look pretty sharp (especially in that green). :D

Well, I got mine because according to Metro policy, you can bring it on any bus or train at any time. For others, I think that since the oil crunch people have been looking at alternative ways of getting around, and foldies + public transportation are an attractive option.

Besides, they do look wicked cool!
