I went on several bikeathons with Uvumbuzi club to Magadi Soda, they were awesome. Maybe when we come by next time, Sila and I will come and say hi!

Check out the coop bike above - I just uploaded it.

Of course, this isn't true of all areas in the US, as there are a number of cities that are bicycle friendly, but in most places, bicycle commuting isn't a viable option. This program in Kenya seems to be a great way to stimulate the economy and could have long term effects as well. I would love to see something similar in the US...
