Ah yes, the frustrations of the multi-modal relationship! Who hasn't been there?

Every day you find out about a new feminist bike zine in the world is a good day. Just ordered one. Happy new year!
Six women are raising funds to bike across the country talking about menstrual cups (and giving them away to women they meet along the way!). Such a rad project—please support them!
Katherine “Kittie” T Knox (1874-1900) challenged perceptions of race and gender in the national spotlight from a young age. Riding a normal upright “men’s” bicycle and wearing self-tailored pants, she paved the way for women to dress as they pleased and achieve mobility on a bicycle, while raising eyebrows and ranking high in races. As a bi-racial teenager in Boston, she joined the first Black cycling group and eventually the National League of American Wheelman. At the annual League meeting in 1895, according to a San Francisco paper, “she produced a league membership card and declared that no exception had ever been taken to her color…After asserting herself to that extent, Miss Knox walked defiantly out with her wheel.” Kitty opened the debate to eventually overturn the color bar, demonstrating her right as an equal member. Even though the League did not officially remove the color bar until over one hundred years later after Kitty had died tragically of kidney disease, her actions were a heartening rally call that paved the way.
“The leaders tried to lose Knox during the eighteen mile run but she was game, and when the big crowd entered the town on the return trip she was up with the leaders, sailing with the best of them,” the Boston Globe wrote in 1895.
I have recently rediscovered that the typical car is much more than what I remembered it to be.
When BikePortland lifestyle columnist Cathy Hastie (RIP Cathy) had to switch to a car commute, she hated it. Here's her ode to the car, and probably my favorite of her all-too-short series of cheeky, hilarious, darkly smart, on-the-nose essays.
Bikes in Space author Aaron Wilson let us know that he has a story in this collection! Enjoy!

We're proud to be publishing author Emily June Street's novel The Velocipede Races in 2015. While you're waiting, check out her most recent book, The Secret Room. The book is set in the same distant universe as The Velo Races, but deals with familiar issues of sexual assault, power, and law.
This is where people share only the best content they’ve seen that day.
Having a lot of fun choosing one good, lasting link per day to post to this.cm, and watching my bookshelf grow to encompass a way more complex and interesting field than most social media feeds are able to do. Good stuff!
We just backed this anthology of feminist science fiction on Kickstarter! We can't wait to read the stories—or to see the feminist SFF bookshelf stretch into the horizon!
Here's the cover for Our Bodies, Our Bikes, featuring Katura Reynold's great illustration.
A few things have changed in the plan for this book, all for the immensely better. More news coming soon!
Ride marshal MOMO reporting for duty! Pasadena CSC, we are ready to take humans down to South LA #Ciclavia!
Humans, please remember to follow traffic rules, ride safely, and be respectful to everyone! Please let me know if you need an assistance. I am the caboose and no-one will be left behind.
Rolling out! Thank you, please enjoy your open streets event and remember to support bicycling and walking in daily life~
P.S. You can see that sticker from ellyblue has been put to good use.
One of our stickers in the wild! Being used by a rabbit, no less. Good work, rabbit.
Josie's been doing a series of interviews all year with women in all parts of the bike movement. Pretty fun to explore!
