This afternoon I talked SWFBUD and bicycling at the Eco-lution event in downtown Tampa, handing out fliers for the Bicycle Bash by the Bay and chatting bicycling with anyone who stopped by the SWFBUD table. It was a pleasant event, kind of a dressed-up Earth Day event where the people who showed up already shared the green view on life.
The Urban Charette and its "Agents of Change" put on the Eco-Lution event. The Urban Charette is mostly architects, planners, designers and generally hip greenies who feel Tampa can do a better job at building a more efficient city of more interesting, better-designed buildings that would improve our quality of life.
That's where bicycling comes in. Any great city is a bicycle-friendly city that has multiple ways to get around besides a car.
I was hoping for a little more people to attend the event today, but overall it was a nice-looking event.
