The Cycling Politician: Place is Important.
Taylor Bachrach is our local Member of Parliament, and he uses his bicycle for transportation at least as much as I do. Taylor recently comissioned two local artists—Bruce Hobson and Mark DeHoog—to create a bike design that in all my years of collecting bike stories I’ve never encountered. This story makes me proud to be part of a community of imaginative people who work hard to enable others to succeed. On a bike!
