Welcome to BoBo Feed


BoBo is a French expression, short for Bourgeois Bohème, and it pretty much describes who we are.

Bobo Feed will be sharing things that inspire us or please us-
from the worlds of architecture & design, fashion & styling, food and drink, travel, urban living, whatever...

We hope you enjoy.

New Feed Bag Link for the love of urban cycling

While the purpose of this blog is not one of advocacy, urban cycling does inspire us, so we are happy to include in our Feed Bag (see right) a new link to Copenhagenize, a site dedicated to promoting that cause. It is the sister site of fellow Feed Bag member Copenhagen Cycle Chic,
(pic below) already a favourite of ours.
We love the current focus at both these sites on winter cycling. Copenhagenize, in particular, has some great photos, clips & descriptions of the impressive efforts the city puts into clearing snow from bike paths. Keeping the bikes moving is priority #1.
At a time when a certain candidate in Toronto's upcoming mayoral election is seeking to use bike lanes as a wedge to be driven between city & suburban voters, and when the usual excuse from all sides as to insufficient funding of our bike routes is that "Toronto is a winter city", it is inspiring to see that at least one major metropolis with a wintery climate refuses to let weather weaken its imagination.
