Los Conquistadors

The World Cup is finally over, a new first time champion has surfaced through the history books. This winning club's nation is known as Spain or as the other half of the World calls them, España. This first-ever World Cup victory came from the courtesy of Andres Iniesta late-goal in extra time, against an equally aggressive & dedicated squad known as the Netherlands. Both teams gave it their all but after such a long endured Sunday in South Africa, the victor was certain that only that the only squad remaining standing was Spain winning it 1-0 to claim the title of 2010 World Cup Champion. One can only be assured that seeing Spain bringing home the Championship this year is more than enough reason for that Nation to celebrate.

IF Mode: Folding Bike

The clean and striking company, MODE is aimed at commuters that may have not considered cycling or folding bikes as an option. MODE avoids oily chains, complex tubes with hidden dirt traps & the clutter of traditional bike features. MODE features Pacific's IF (Integrated Folding) technology that offers a single-action, automatic fold that requires no tools or removal of parts. IF technology is based on a patented 3-dimensional 4-Bar linkage that automatically guides the wheels together when folding. Once folded, MODE rolls along in a convenient wheelable package. The pricing on this bike is a bit steep at $2,199 but the investment will pay out through its convenience & simplicity along with its lightweight & smooth cycling that offers as an alternative to pretty much anyone. Another benefit, is that by cycling it can make the Earth a Greener Place.
