Celebrating "the
high life on low energy" the 11" X 17" wall calendar
features more than 20 remarkable color photos, along with provocative
quotes & illustrations. UK, US and Canadian Holidays are listed
seperately. Designed by guest editor Reykha Bonilla, the calendar
conveys bicycle culture without borders-from the "bicycle-expressways"
of Shanghai & Washington, Budapest & Mexico to remote near
mystical landscapes of Nicaragua & El Salvador, Uganda &
India - also Maine & Minnesota! More so than in past calendars
pedal power is front and center; featured are several bike-rigged
spinning wheels in Africa & Central America, a "bus-cycle"
for 28 passengers in rural America, a chain-wheel ice chipper in
Sudan, and even a solar/battery/human powered hybrid of a bike that's
capable of speeds twice as fas as the mature, city friendly 15 mph.
"Cycle
& Recycle is an example of what non-profits can do and publish
by collaborating" says the editor John Dowlin. With more than
3,500 calendars annually. Interestingly, only one of these calendars
promotes the careful use & reuse of the world's limited resources. |
