The Bicycle City: How bicycles can completely transform an entire city
Posted on 30. Mar, 2011 by Jonathan Cherry in Streetflava
If you’re wondering how the growing network of cycle lanes across Cape Town could potentially improve the city economically – consider the story of Rivas, Nicaragua, an impoverished developing nation town transformed by the empowerment of its citizens through bicycles.
Inspirational – another movie to add to the list.

Hi Cherryflava, hi everyone. The Bicycle City looks brilliant! Thanks for finding this. Please have a look at our project chronicling South African bicycle commuter culture:

This project will be a beautiful photographic book and a documentary when it is completed in a few months. The website contains portraits and interviews of the hundreds of people we’ve photographed so far. I think you might like it…
Stan.
