living in the bike lane

April 20, 2012 CGR 1 comment
it’s been a long week but i have had a lot of fun riding in all this beautiful california weather! today i’m celebrating my first final exam as complete along with community projects. the end of the semester and time is pressing but for now i’m just trying to enjoy the sun and ride.
on a good note, i just finished designing a blog for food justice advocates and non-profit in West Oakland, Mandela Marketplace. we will be launching the blog in the next few weeks but i’m also really excited to announce that i will also be part of their contributing bloggers. as any cyclist who loves food and sustainability knows that fresh food access and security in low income communities is an issue. that’s where we see grass roots movements in community gardens, food co-ops, and non-profits teaming up and creating networks to educate and bring fresh food to marginalized communities. 
there’s a lot of good brewing up in this project along with others. can’t wait to share more with you guys plus all the good bikey fun i’m having.

Matching skirt to bike, good going!

I hope that all your exams go well, exciting!

Sustainable food is such a great project to be involved with, growing and feeding a community can really make lives richer!
