This site was formerly Living Room, but before that, it was The Bike People. We have simply returned to our emphasis on bicycling in the city in the context of cultural, social, and environmental sustainability. All our former content is still available through the article indexes on the left.
News snippets, musings, rants, announcements, press releases, and anything else we decide to throw in here...welcome!
