The Hanging Bicycles of Sao Paulo


Ciclistas had hung bicycle in pole to complain of deaths in the transit.

The bicycle hung in a pole in the Avenue Luiz Carlos Berrini in protest against the high number of ciclistas died in the transit of São Paulo...


... the bicycles are called "ghost bikes"

The machine translations to English here can be a bit obtuse, but Sao Paulo's Paulo Baptista's love for cycling and his poetic spirit comes through loud and clear.
