Bicycle Ballerina Shows Why Cycling is Art in Motion
If you thought cycling was just a great way to get in shape, have fun, save money and go green, think again! In the above video, the 'bicycle ballerina' shows why cycling is also an art form. Sure, we've seen bicycle racks made into art, bicycle film festivals and even bike art screensavers. But we've never seen someone make the act of riding the bike itself look so much like a Monet painting in motion. So enjoy the video, and add artistry to the laundry list of reasons for getting on your bike!

It's a fixed gear bike, which is how she is able to ride backwards etc. Notice the pedals keep moving.
Ines Brunn has become somewhat of a celebrity within the urban fixed gear culture. She's an incredible bicycle acrobat.
Amazing performance. Thanks for the video
Not to detract from this lady's obvious acrobatic accomplishments, but I've seen this at Barnum & Bailey circuses, too.
