Clarence from StreetFilms wrote to tell us that David Byrne just had his bicycle stolen! See Byrne on StreetFilms and Jason’s post on a chance encounter with him at SXSW.

Is there anybody cooler than David Byrne? I saw him at the Showbox a couple years ago with Paul of Lysle from Wines of WA - Tasting Room (Go see them - they sponsor bike racing). Amazing music, and some rather poignant commentary on the direction of the environment. The guy is very grounded for a celebrity and he’s realistic with his expectations.

I remembered Byrne’s blog. More interesting commentary there including some on his bike advocacy:
Bike Forum.

Sad day for Mr. Byrne. His bike will never be same as it ever was…

And without it he’s “letting the days go by”
