Join us for a free screening of @motherloadmovie with a Q&A session following with the director Liz Canning, @mayorkaufusi, and a few other moms who bike in Provo. Motherload is a film that captures a new mother’s quest to understand the increasing isolation and disconnection of modern life, its planetary impact, and how cargo bikes could be an antidote. Registrants will receive the link to watch on their own about 36 hours before the Q&A. The Q&A session will be at 7pm on January 14. This event is held in partnership with @provobicyclecollective as part of Provo’s second annual Women’s Bike Summit. REGISTRATION LINK IN BIO.

#bikewalkprovostories Austin Taylor “At the beginning of the pandemic as things shut down, I put my everyday bike in the shed and left it there for a week. I walked everywhere instead as I had more time on my hands and fewer places to go. It was eye-opening. I noticed architecture and public art I hadn’t before. I stopped at local restaurants and shops more frequently to get a snack. I crossed paths with friends and chatted (six feet way, of course). A city that encourages walking and makes it safe to do so will have a healthier, more connected community and stronger economy.”

This is the time of year when the snow teaches us the following: – how excessively wide Provo’s streets are – how much we taxpayers waste to lay and maintain unused asphalt – how big of an opportunity we have to repurpose this street space What would you do with this space? Let’s hear your ideas! @provocity
