Last bump. Anyone with Turbo Trainer or rollers with fork stand willing to lend them to me for 3 days or 2 weeks?
Hello everyone,
I have an exhibition from 16th to 18th August at the South Place Hotel (http://sizzle9show.eventbrite.co.uk/) and another for two weeks starting 19th August at the Barbican Gallery and need to borrow two sets of Turbo Trainers or rollers for two bikes urgently! Kinoko Cycles has agreed to lend me bikes for the South Place Hotel exhibition. This is a non-commercial, art and tech community event.
Basically I joined an art hackathon recently and built an app that won an honorary mention award. Was working in Beijing for a couple of years and rode a fixie with the Big Dirty Cycling group every Thursday night, one of us would bring music and speakers as we cruised around the city. Really miss doing that as I've since moved to London and ride alone to commute mostly.
With this app, you and your pals can be in different locations and listen to music while you ride. It tracks the speed while you're riding and the music gets softer if you're slower or faster than your friend and gets louder when you're riding at a similar speed as your friend. Each bike has a unique beat and when combined, you make music together! There is also a visualiser that is generated by the speed of the bikes.
A couple of videos of the work in progress during the hackathon:

Please contact me as soon as possible if you have rollers that I can borrow for three days at the South Place Hotel or even better, two weeks for the Barbican! I'll buy you lunch? Or if you know any company who could lend me the rollers, we will definitely credit and promote your business. Looking at 250-300 attendees on the launch night 16th August.
Thanks in advance!!
