Rodafonio YouTube still.JPGVideo: Jazz band plays inside giant wheel
Here's a cheerful video that's put a smile on our faces and had as humming an upbeat tune all afternoon at road.cc towers as a jazz band performs at a carnival in Barcelona while being pedalled around inside a giant wheel.
The footage of the contraption, called Rodafonio, designed by Cesar Alvarez, is from a couple of years back but we reckon it's too good not to share.
The music was apparently composed by Rodrigo Spagnuolo and arranged by Sebastian Cabra and Miguel Ramon, and everyone - including the three musicians and the two guys pedalling - appears to be having a great time.
You can find lots more videos of it here. Nice.
Simon joined road.cc as news editor in 2009 and is now the site’s community editor, acting as a link between the team producing the content and our readers. A law and languages graduate, published translator and former retail analyst, he has reported on issues as diverse as cycling-related court cases, anti-doping investigations, the latest developments in the bike industry and the sport’s biggest races. Now back in London full-time after 15 years living in Oxford and Cambridge, he loves cycling along the Thames but misses having his former riding buddy, Elodie the miniature schnauzer, in the basket in front of him.
