DESCRIPTION:Join us for a talk about vital transportation issues with the author of In 
 the City of Bikes: The Story of the Amsterdam. Cyclist, Pete Jordan, and 
 our own Jason Henderson, author of Street Fight: The Struggle over Urban 
 Mobility in San Francisco.\n\nWhen Pete Jordan arrives in Amsterdam to 
 study how to make America’s cities more bicycle-friendly, he immediately 
 falls in love with the city that already lives life on two wheels.\n\nFrom 
 its beginnings as an elitist pastime in the 1890s to the street-consuming 
 craze of the 1920s, from the bicycle’s role in a citywide resistance to 
 the Nazi occupation to the White Bikes of the 1960s and the bike fishermen 
 of today, Jordan chronicles the evolution of Amsterdam’s 
 cycling.\n\nNowhere are tensions between motorists, bicyclists and buses 
 higher than in San Francisco, the birthplace of the freeway revolts, the 
 Transit First ordinance, and Critical Mass. In Street Fight, geographer 
 Jason Henderson offers a fresh perspective into the battle for limited 
 urban road space, delving into the ideologies underlying the politics of 
 mobility.\n\nFree Admission\n\n
