Lifecycle: 365 days in the life of a bike in NYC



More info:
Get a bike. Lock it to a post. Take a pic every day for a year.
Last year, Red Peak Branding conducted a unique urban experiment for Hudson Urban Bicycles. On January 1, 2011 we chained a fully loaded bike - bells, basket, lights and more - to a post along a busy Soho street. We took a picture of the bike everyday for 365 days, watching it slowly vanish before our eyes. The photos we took were then turned into a daily calendar. We call this project LIFECYCLE: 365 days in the life of a bike in NYC.

Days when things disappear (earliest I can tell)
0:28 day 157 water bottle
0:31 day 214 basket
0:32 day 225 bike lock
0:33 day 231 seat, day 241 parcel rack
0:34 day 248 front wheel, day 252 handlebar grips
0:35 day 270 rest of the bike
3 months before the water bottle was stolen, and over 7 months before a functional part was taken. It looks like parts started disappearing right after the tires went flat and bike looked abandoned.
