Enjoy a gallery talk in the Cycle Thru! The Art of The Bike exhibition from Madelyn Detloff\, Professor of English\, Glo bal and Intercultural Studies at Miami University\, focusing on the inter sections of bicycling and women’s history. Then\, watch a basic bike repa ir demonstration from Kat Ruegger of MoBo Bicycle Cooperative or map your next ride with a consultation from Tri-State Trails.

About the Presenter s:
Madelyn Detloff has taught at M iami University for more than 22 years\, focusing on feminist and queer t heory\, LGBTQ+ studies\, modernist literature and culture\, and crip theo ry. She is currently serving as the General Editor for Oxford University Press's Gender Justice Intersections Project.

MoBo is a volunteer-run bicycle cooperative. They are a community of people who come together to learn from each other\, promote bicycling in our city\, a nd build friendships. They maintain a fully equipped shop where members c an learn to work on their own bicycles with the assistance of experienced volunteers through their core program\, Open Shop. They host workshops\, social events\, and advocate for bicycling in Cincinnati.

\n< p>Tri-State Trails’ mission is to con nect people and places with a regional trail and bikeway network that enh ances vibrancy and equity in the community. Tri-State Trails was organize d in 2012 when Green Umbrella\, Greater Cincinnati’s climate collaborativ e\, convened partners from around the area to craft a connected vision fo r a fragmented regional trail network. Those initial discussions revealed how much interest there is to link communities with trails and bikeways. With support from Interact for Health\, they prepared a nine-county Regi onal Trails Plan in 2014 and hired their first full-time team member in 2 015. Since then\, Tri-State Trails has grown to become the leading advoca cy organization for active transportation issues in Greater Cincinnati.
