Hi!! My name is Lily and I love bikes.
I learned how to ride a bike was I was 21, with an $80 beater I bought my junior year of college from Omer and Bob's in Lebanon, NH.
When I was 22, I moved to LA, headed to a used bike shop the third day I was there, and committed myself to biking 7.5 miles each way to and from my office every day.
Now I am a proud bike advocate living in Somerville, MA, just down the road from Wheelworks. I went on my first bike tour this summer (Burlington, VT to Portland, ME) and am nervous and excited for my first century!! I dressed up as a bike lane for Halloween 2019 (in a dress I handpainted) and proudly bike all year round in sun, rain, and snow.
I consider bicycles to be a fantastic engine for social change as part of the long ride to equality. Please consider supporting this important mission of Bikes Not Bombs!
Thanks a lot for sponsoring my ride, and ride on ✌️?
