Abstract (English)

"On the day of the Go North! festival, I had a bicycle wash in front of the Nauss bike shop in North End Halifax. In exchange for writing the stories of their first real bike love, I cleaned the bikes of participants who happened by. I created swag (flags, patches, spoke cards, art fresheners) and gave them away to everyone who shared their story, and some who just liked the swag. Over 50 people wrote down their bike love story in the notebooks provided. The stories may be found in a free zine entitled “Halifax Bike Love” now being distributed." -- Artist's website.
