RECKLESS RIDERS AND RECKLESS WRITERS- JOHN BELSHAW

Historian and cyclist Dr. John Belshaw explores the changing atittudes to bicycles, drivers, the language of shaming and blaming, and answers the question "who's the victim?" in this exploration of bicycle accidents and the news coverage of them since bicycles became common in Vancouver in the 1890s.

Great presentation! I love these histories of seemingly innocent topics that reveal so much about our values and attitudes. I will also be more careful when dangling shoes or bags on my handlebars.
