After 2 years of biking and 5+ years of writing and editing, I’m excited to officially launch The Bicycle Diaries: My 21,000-Mile Ride for the Climate.
The official book launch party will be on March 24th, at SPUR’s offices in downtown San Francisco — 654 Mission Street. All book sales from this celebration will support the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition.
Refreshments at 6:30pm, followed by a slideshow at 7pm. You can RSVP via the Eventbrite page.
I’m hoping to have some prizes to give away. Also, I will of course give a slideshow of the best pictures from a bicycle tour across 16 countries. I’ll also discuss the impacts of climate change on the places I visited, and will preview our upcoming bicycle tour across Asia.
After this event, I’m going on a short trip through the northwest, and I have events planned for the following dates:
-
- March 27th Tsunami Books, 4:00-5:30pm, Eugene, Oregon
- March 31st 7pm, Portland, Oregon, at Velo Cult
- April 1st, 7pm OSU Campus- Burt Hall, Rm 193, Corvallis, Oregon
- April 2nd 7pm, Seattle, Washington, Wide World Travel Store
- April 3rd 7pm, Olympia, Washington, Traditions Fair Trade
- April 4th 6:30pm, Third Place Books, Lake Forest Park, Washington
- April 7th 7:00pm, Diesel Books, Oakland, CA
Washington Bikes (formerly the Bicycle Alliance of WA) is the statewide nonprofit growing bicycling through advocacy, education, and outreach. We’ll spread the word about your Washington appearances through @WAbikes and our other media.
We have a storefront in Pioneer Square that sells bike-themed gifts and books, along with maps from all over the state. We serve as a bike travel information center and would love to carry your book.
Let us know how we can order it for maximum return to you as the author, and if you’d like to do another Seattle trip consider us as a location.
