Let’s Go Ride a Bike is featured in the upcoming issue of Yes! Magazine, an award-winning, ad-free, non-profit publication that supports people’s active engagement in building a just and sustainable world.  The issue is on building community resilience and one of the features is 8 Crash-Proof Ideas, highlighting people and places building skills now that will come in handy in a future without oil.  We (meaning us and all of you out there) are Resillent Idea 3: Bike Anytime, Anywhere, As You Are.

You can read this part of the article by clicking on the image above.  The issue comes out sometime in the next week or two.  You can purchase it at Borders, Barnes & Noble, Whole Foods, other book/magazine sellers or subscribe here. I highly recommend supporting this intelligent, interesting and unique publication.

Viva le revolution!

    The picture is timeless, subject captures the season well and photographer expressed it well. Makes you wish you were there(one thousand words could not express it better).

    Okay, I’m going to have to pick this up. Loved that picture back in the colder days, and this really is the message of LGRAB and – I think – the future of better transportation.

    Nice. I love when you talk that way.

    This is a really great photo. Has a post-apocalyptic feel to it, like “Last Woman Standing”. You almost look Norse; like you’ve just arrived on our wintery shores… and you mean business. You should be holding a sword.

    Congrats Dottie! :)

    “….building skills now that will come in handy in a future without oil”

    Mmmm. My feelings exactly. Though perhaps we might want to keep a little oil around for lubing the chains and whatnot or for making specialized medicines & such that can’t otherwise be made. But those are at least useful things for oil to do ~ unlike powering SUVs to the next stoplight for another 3 minutes of idling.

    What kind of snow tires are those anyway? Schwalbe HS 264s? (just curious .. am planning ahead for when it gets colder)

  • Jeanette

    Iconic photo, empowering message. Kudos to both of you!

    Great Photo Dottie!!! I am planning on winter biking for the 1st time this year. Did you find it hard to put winter tyres on your Oma with the fenders? I’ve been advised it might be hard with the Pashley + fenders.

    You look very Russian Royalty:)

      Thanks. No problem with the fenders and winter tires. In fact, the studded tires are smaller my regular Oma tires, so there is more clearance with the studded tires.

    I forgot to congratulate you on showing up in YES! That picture is one of my all time favorites.
