At the upcoming Cycles of Continuance/Sustainable Transportation Using Bicycles and Public Transit with Rick Risemberg of Bicycle Fixation you can learn how easy it is to get around your city on your own power or with the help of public transit–even if your city is one as vast and busy as Los Angeles! We’ll cover equipment, clothing, techniques, and attitudes that make all-weather bicycling not only practical but pleasurable. Free yourself from obesity, stress, high fuel prices, and boredom, and free the planet from sprawl and pollution and the gigantic tax subsidies given to road abusers. And no, you won’t need to dress in Lycra!
Date: Wednesday, March 26th Time: 7:00-8:30pm
Place: All Shades of Green, 3038 Rowena Ave., Los Angeles, California 90039
Price: $15 * **
Presenter Rick Risemberg has been a bicycle commuter in Los Angeles for most of the last forty years, and presently, at age 55, rides a fixed-gear bicycle up and down LA’s hills in all weather, to business meetings, coffeehouse visits, or just because it’s a nice day out. He edits The New colonist (www.newcolonist.com), an online ‘zine dedicated to sustainable urban development, and Bicycle Fixation (www.bicyclefixation.com), covering the bike commuter beat, as well as designing and manufacturing a line of clothing for bike commuters.

wow,
this seems like a really cool lecture…but shouldnt this be free or at least affordable…even at 50% off I would hesitate…
I agree, I wonder why the charge at the door? Maybe a “ticket” would have made more sense. It still seems like an awesome event.
