For a healthy Friday afternoon dose of bike culture inspiration, follow the link above and check out Peter Mulvey's video.

After making a career as a singer/songwriter he admits "I've had a great old time" touring Europe and North America by plane and car, "and I've burned a lot of gasoline doing so."

"I feel like I've started this dance - dancing one foot in the redrock and rivers and biking and meeting rural folks and everyday folks everywhere, and one foot in the urban land, on the computer, paying the cell phone bill, updating the blog...

I want to get more and more on the first foot, less on the last"

Using a Human-Powered Amplifier sponsored and engineered by Rock The Bike, Shake Your Peace is rocking shows this month in Utah. The band's 700 mile bicycle-based tour began April 2nd in Salt Lake City, and includes stops at college towns, cities, and mountain towns, not to mention hot springs. Lead singer and guitarist Gabe Dominguez grew up in Utah and feels an ongoing connection to the youth in the state. He tours by bicycle to inspire a new generation about their environmental choices, and to increase the magic of his tour.
