'Este movimiento social de base popular y sin líder definido se abre camino a través del ruido y la inercia del transporte urbano reducido al coche y nos enseña a esculpir un pedazo de la ciudad de nuestros sueños". Así se expresa la ensayista Anna Sojourner en esta enérgica e irreverente colección de crítica social y celebración optimista. Cuatro docenas de colaboradores documentan, definen y subrayan la belleza de un tranquilo paseo en bici con mil amigos, la anarquía de la inspiración popular, el melodrama de la cobertura de los medios y la lucha por la supervivencia de nuestras ciudades'
(agradecimientos a Bea Querol por la traducción)
