People biking across the Fremont Bridge just smashed the all-time April record by 8%. Something big is happening in Seattle bicycling right now, and we need to talk about it.
Join me, Cascade’s Paul Tolmé and Tyler Vasquez, and Seattle Streets Alliance’s Clara Cantor for the 2nd Annual Bike Month Bash 7:30 p.m. May 6 at Town Hall Seattle.
We’ll discuss the state of cycling, how biking fits into summer plans around big events like the men’s World Cup, and more. World Cup or not, this is shaping up to be a huge year for cycling in Seattle, and I’m excited to talk about it with these fine folks and answer audience questions.
Tickets are $10–$35 sliding scale. More details from the event listing:

Seattle’s bike network and transit connections are expanding as the city prepares for the FIFA World Cup and a flood of visitors this summer. But gaps remain, and more work is needed to make people of all abilities feel safe biking in our city. There are also many opportunities to support better biking in Seattle, such as the Pedaling Relief Project that rescues and delivers food on behalf of multiple food banks. Bring your enthusiasm and questions for our panel of speakers representing Cascade Bicycle Club, the Seattle Streets Alliance, and the Seattle Bike Blog. Learn about opportunities to push progress and participate in a Summer of Seattle Cycling!
