Cycling Friendly Cities

This is a lo-res version of a 15-minute movie that’s available in hi-res on iTunes http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=252244643

Or at http://carltonreid.libsyn.com/

The film features lots of happy cyclists from the Netherlands, Denmark and Colombia, and shows how creating a bicycle-friendly city is the civilised thing to do.

Scripted by Enrique Peñalosa, former mayor of Bogotá and the poster-child for city-wide bicycle advocacy, the movie was produced by the Netherlands-based Interface for Cycling Expertise (I-CE).

It was made in 2004 and received a financial contribution from the Dutch Directorate General for International Cooperation (DGIS). Shimano sponsored the CD distribution of the movie. These CDs are handed out at global cycle campaigning events.

www.Quickrelease.tv received permission to broadcast the film from I-CE. www.cycling.nl
