You may know that Causecast leader Matthew Modine is really into bicycling. His comparison of automobiles to cigarettes inspired some strong reactions from readers on The Huffington Post. For some time, he’s been an outspoked voice urging us to change our culture and especially the way we think about transportation.
If you’ve been involved in the great bike vs car debate and live in or near New York City, you can share in Modine’s revolution by joining him and his organization, Bicycle For a Day, for a fundraising benefit for Solar One on June 4 at 23rd Street & the East River.
Profits from event ticket sales will be donated to Solar One, to be used towards the purchase of 60 bike racks for the new Solar Two building, The First Carbon-Neutral, Net-Zero Energy Building in New York City.
