What is a bike panda shot?
I’ve been seeing lots of people mentioning “panda shots” on twitter lately and I couldn’t figure out what they were. I’ve seen a couple, and I guess they all had bikes in them, but I didn’t make the connection until @416cyclestyle posted one earlier today. As soon as I realized these panda shots had something to do with bikes, I looked into it. According to...
