Cycle Chic ® Goes to Vancouver

David and Victoria
So, I was in Vancouver last week. Did at talk at Simon Fraser University. Did a bunch of radio interviews, among them one for CBCs The Current. And then I attended the brilliant Cycle Chic Social party hosted by our friends at Vancouver Cycle Chic. That's VCC's David, above, with his girlfriend Victoria, as we head home one evening.

I also wandered/cycled around a city I know well and a city that I used to live in. Here are some of the things I saw.
Canadians
One of the days was Canada Day so there was Canadiana all over the place. The gentleman, above left, is about as Canadian as you can get.

All in all, Cycle Chic is not a foreign concept to Vancouverites.

what I meant to say was:

We're happy you came to Vancouver to spread the good word!
The man to the right of 'the gentleman on the left' is Rod,of 'Ride on Again,'a shop which has a wide assortment of cruisers and other bikes for today's citizen cyclist. He is also instrumental to "vancruisers, a community of cyclists who host popular cruiser rides all year long.
Thank you for taking some time to share your very passionate views with me. You make a profound impression during the course of your mission to make the world a better place.
Happy cycling!
