marla continued from p.7 bled our grant. It’s basically education and bike safety stuff. We organize kid’s rodeos and teach adults who want to start bicycle commuting. So far, we’ve taught over 1,000 people. We had 420 kids at one elementary school recently. And we give away free bikes helmets. The kids love it. It’s a wonderful experience for me — I get so much out of it. SPOKES: It’s incredible — almost sad — we have to teach a lot kids to ride a bike. STREB: It used to be that 70 percent of kids walked or biked to school and 5 percent of the kids were overweight. Now those numbers are reversed. In the city schools, too, we have some kids who are 10 years old and have never been on a bicycle. SPOKES: So what’s next for you? What do you want to be doing down the road? STREB: My husband and I want to open a bicycle café — Baltimore’s first one — a bicycle-themed place with food and liquor license and a bike corral. Organized bike rides, lots of plans. They’re all over. My favorite probably is the Mojo Bicycle Café in San Francisco. Half is retail; half is food. You can eat outdoors. There’s green space. Really cool. Not me, but Mark would be a great restaurant owner. We tried once already but it fell through. Hopefully it will work out. We’ll let you know. Ever dreamed of sporting spandex at work? Yeah– we have, too. JOIN US ON: At Revolution Cycles, we work hard and we play hard. If you’re an energetic, motivated bicycle enthusiast, we’d love for you to join our team. Corporate dropouts, part-timers, retirees and international celebrities welcome. LEARN MORE AT REVOLUTIONCYCLES.COM 8 June 2012
