My piece about “invisible cyclists” was just published on Twin Cities Runoff. (via thedependentclause)
Whenever I read anything about bike culture I will always be reminded of the terrible article in [redacted local mag] where they put bikers into four groups, three of which were men, one of which was women who go to MCAD and wear dresses while riding their 3-speeds. And so even though I bristle at the concept of “let’s put bikers into more groups!” (and this is addressed!), I’m super glad this piece exists.
