~ Franke James (contemporary artist, photographer, writer)

Dear friends, bicycle lovers, and anyone else that has time on Friday night: The last Friday of the month is around the corner, which means its time for another bike ride across the city. The weather is warming up so its time to dust off your bike and get out in the streets and have some fun.
