Bicycle Portraits - everyday South Africans and their bicycles is a photography book project initiated by Stan Engelbrecht and Nic Grobler. Described as “an investigation into South African bicycle culture”, the project involves photographs of, and interviews with, cyclists from all over South Africa. Engelbrecht and Grobler try to find out who the bikers are, why they ride bicycles, if and why they love their machines, and why so few South Africans choose these vehicles as a transport option. The two have set up a Kickstarter pledge page as an alternative way of raising funds by essentially taking pre-orders from an online community who want to see the project succeed.
