In Cyclettes, author and designer Tree Abraham takes readers on an illustrated ride through her life.
And then I would encourage everyone to also have a lightweight bike. I have a Peugeot mixte. It is a heavy bike by modern standards, but it's a fusion between a road bike and a racing bike. It's more upright, with straight handlebars. That's been my favorite bike. It has expandable bike baskets, which I write about in the book. It's got thin tires, which are great for city life, but also I can take it longer distances.
I’ve gotten a lot of questions from people asking, “Is the bicycle the secret to solving all the world's problems?” And, of course, my answer is yes. I don't say that in the book. There's lots of books that are written on that. And I think, yes—the answer is yes.. I strongly recommend one. Put it right on your handlebars. It's a game changer.
Yeah, I love that, because I have an anxious relationship to cars. For a decade or more, I have always approached the world with the bicycle as my main way of running errands and getting from point A to point B. For me, it doesn't seem weird to do grocery shopping with my bike. But for a lot of people who have both a bike and a car, they're like, “Well, of course I would need a car if I was going to buy a large object, or for my essential needs.
When it comes to sustainability and thinking about habit-forming ways we can really live more green, it requires us to challenge the way we have done stuff and to come up with completely new models. The bike is just one tool we can use to reexamine how we've been doing things. The bike is something that merges a lot of different realms into one fluid conduit. It's your exercise, it's how you get things done efficiently, it's how you do things affordably. It ticks so many boxes.
