For those who commute to work/class by bike (or want to start!), this group serves as a common space in which to discuss related issues, share news and concerns, and have a united presence in CUNY. Also on Twitter and Facebook.
You may already be aware, but I wanted to share some information that was recently posted on the BWRC blog about the Biking in Brooklyn Conference on March 22nd. The Brooklyn Waterfront Research Center will be hosting a half-day conference on the history, culture, and future of biking in the borough of Brooklyn. For more information check out their save the date post: http://bwrc.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2013/01/31/save-the-date-biking-in-brooklyn-conference-march-22/
