Amsterdam's "Bike Mayor" Will Visit 25 Cities on a Global Bike-Focused Tour

Hopefully Chicago is a stop on the tour.

"Back in June, Anna Luten became Amsterdam’s—and the world’s—first bike mayor. As an adviser working part-time, rather than a politician, Luten’s role is to be a linchpin that links up cyclists with both the city and the non-cycling public, in order to get better infrastructure, safety and understanding between those who do and don’t travel on two wheels.

"Cycle Space, the NGO that launched the bike mayor project, plans to export the concept to 25 cities around the world—a plan that Luten herself will kickstart in New York in 2017."

It will be great to meet her if she does come to our city.

Maybe LuAnn Hamilton, roughly the Chicago equivalent, could take he on a bike tour around the city.
