Bicycle / Race paints an unforgettable picture of Los Angeles and the United States from the perspective of two wheels. This is a book of borderlands and intersections, a cautionary tale about the dangers of putting infrastructure before culture, and a coming-of-age story about power and identity. The colonial history of southern California is interwoven through Adonia Lugo''s story of growing up Chicana in Orange County, becoming a bicycle anthropologist, and co-founding Los Angeles''s hallmark open streets cycling event, CicLAvia, along the way. |
