A remarkably sustainable band, the Ginger Ninjas, toured 5,000 miles from North California to South Mexico, by bicycle, carrying all instruments and equipment on their bikes, including a 1000w bicycle-powered sound system, sans automobile support.

Now they are planning a world tour in the same fashion, starting late august on the East Coast. The band believes that the idea, “bigger, faster, more” has run its course, leaving a mountain of environmental and social woes and a void of meaning.
