  • Leah ( a rad chica from New York) is interested in expanding Ghost Bikes to more cities around the world.
    If you don't know the project, check it out here: www.ghostbikes.org
    of course, we have ghost cycle: http://www.ghostcycle.org.uk/ but we don;t see many of the memorials around at all.
    if you are interested drop a line on their website, or email me, Laura@bicyclefilmfestival.com and i will send you her email.
    They are doing a ride this week in NYC if anyone is there:
