Description

UPDATED Sept. 27: Due to the overwhelming interest in this event, we are moving the slideshow presentation down the block to the Swedish American Museum to ensure everyone can see the slideshow, and we'll walk to the Hopleaf afterwards for socializing! Details updated below.

Park your bike at the Hopleaf's brand new bike corral and join Active Trans, Ald. Harry Osterman (48th Ward) and Ald. Ameya Pawar (47th Ward) for a very special evening to celebrate an exciting year for biking in Chicago.

Earlier this year, the Bikes Belong Foundation took Aldermen Osterman and Pawar to Copenhagen to see how one of the world's most bicycle-friendly cities works. Our evening will include a presentation with a slideshow, and the aldermen will share some of their observations from the trip.
