There’s plenty of urbanists in urban centers with access to funding and support from their city policy makers.

Bikes heal. We hosted a ride to honor the lives of Nicole Good, Keith Porter Jr, and Alex Pretti. For those of us who find solace and joy on bikes, I think it’s essential to experience it together. Thank you so much @angrycatfish for organizing rides around the world. #alexpretti

Join us and groups all around the country for a bike ride in honor of the lives of Alex Pretti, Nicole Good, and Keith Porter Jr. We’ll have snacks, stickers, and hugs. Meet in front of Watching Booksellers at 2:00 pm 1/31/2026. Ride will roll at 2:30 pm. RSVP here: tinyurl.com/494ssk8h
