To the Dutch, cycling is as normal as breathing. They don’t think about it, they just do it. Perhaps the fact that they don’t think about it, is the key to the bicycle’s success in the Netherlands. Through conversations with ordinary cyclists and specialists from a variety of disciplines, the Dutch filmmakers uncover some obvious, but even more hidden effects of cycling on people, on societies, and on the organization of cities.
Join Healthy Places GSD and the Harvard Graduate School of Design on March 11 for the exclusive Boston area premiere of "Why we cycle,” exploring the hidden effects of cycling on our cities and ourselves. The one-hour film will be followed by a one-hour panel discussion with local cycling leaders on the health, sustainability, and equity benefits from cycling.
