Due to the expected hot weather, we are adjusting the format of Cycle Social on Tuesday, July 21 at 6 p.m. again this month. We’ll meet at SBC headquarters, 1301 Lincoln Street, for pizza and beverages (on us!) and talk about what your Savannah Bicycle Campaign is doing to make Savannah better for bicycling. We’ll also have a provocative presentation.

Dr. Daniel Piatkowski will present, “The rules of the road are designed to be broken,” in which he’ll provide a brief history of why we design our roads so dangerously and why everyone breaks the law. He will also report on some of the descriptive statistics emerging from the Scofflaw Biking Survey he conducted earlier this year with colleagues from the University of Colorado Denver. Piatkowski is an assistant professor of urban studies and planning at Savannah State University.

If the weather is cool enough after the presentation, we’ll go for a ride. If you plan to attend, please R.S.V.P. to john@bicyclecampaign.org to ensure we have enough food and drink on hand.
