<div class="ai1ec-event-avatar alignleft timely"><img src="https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/event_image_27833-330x330.png" width="330" height="330" /></div><p><em>Seattle Bike Blog</em> founder Tom Fucoloro presents his new book<em> Biking Uphill in the Rain: The Story of Seattle from behind the Handlebars</em>.</p> <p>In <em><strong>Biking Uphill in the Rain</strong>,</em> Tom Fucoloro, a leading voice on bike issues in the region, blends his longtime reporting with new interviews and archival research to tell the story of how a flourishing bike culture emerged despite the obstacles of climate, topography, and—most importantly—an entrenched, car-centric urban landscape and culture. From the arrival of the first bicycles in the late nineteenth century to the bike-share entrepreneurs of the present day, the result is a unique perspective on Seattle’s history and its future. Advocates, policy makers, city planners, and bike enthusiasts around the world can learn plenty from the successes and failures of this city’s past 130 years.</p> <p>More than just a mode of transportation, the bicycle has been used by generations of Seattleites as a tool for social change. <em>Biking Uphill in the Rain</em> documents the people and projects that made a difference and reveals just how deeply intertwined transportation is with politics, public health, climate change, and racial justice.</p> <p><strong>Tom Fucoloro</strong> is founder of<em> <a href="http://seattlebikeblog.com">Seattle Bike Blog</a></em> and has served as its editor since 2010. He was named one of “15 People Who Should Really Run Seattle” by <em>Seattle Met</em> magazine.</p> <div class="sharedaddy sd-sharing-enabled"><div class="robots-nocontent sd-block sd-social sd-social-icon-text sd-sharing"><h3 class="sd-title">Share</h3><div class="sd-content"><ul><li class="share-mastodon"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="sharing-mastodon-505665" class="share-mastodon sd-button share-icon" href="https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/2023/08/10/cpsc-should-eliminate-outdated-child-coaster-brake-mandate/?share=mastodon" target="_blank" title="Click to share on Mastodon" ><span>Mastodon</span></a></li><li class="share-twitter"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="sharing-twitter-505665" class="share-twitter sd-button share-icon" href="https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/2023/08/10/cpsc-should-eliminate-outdated-child-coaster-brake-mandate/?share=twitter" target="_blank" title="Click to share on Twitter" ><span>Twitter</span></a></li><li class="share-facebook"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="sharing-facebook-505665" class="share-facebook sd-button share-icon" href="https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/2023/08/10/cpsc-should-eliminate-outdated-child-coaster-brake-mandate/?share=facebook" target="_blank" title="Click to share on Facebook" ><span>Facebook</span></a></li><li class="share-reddit"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="" class="share-reddit sd-button share-icon" href="https://www.seattlebikeblog.com/2023/08/10/cpsc-should-eliminate-outdated-child-coaster-brake-mandate/?share=reddit" target="_blank" title="Click to share on Reddit" ><span>Reddit</span></a></li><li class="share-email"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" data-shared="" class="share-email sd-button share-icon" href="mailto:?subject=%5BShared%20Post%5D%20CPSC%20should%20eliminate%20outdated%20child%20coaster%20brake%20mandate&body=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.seattlebikeblog.com%2F2023%2F08%2F10%2Fcpsc-should-eliminate-outdated-child-coaster-brake-mandate%2F&share=email" target="_blank" title="Click to email a link to a friend" data-email-share-error-title="Do you have email set up?" data-email-share-error-text="If you're having problems sharing via email, you might not have email set up for your browser.
