Bike to Work Barb has been selected to be one of the speakers for Ignite Spokane tomorrow night (Thursday).
The fast-paced presentation formation takes as its theme “Enlighten us—but make it quick!”. Each speaker talks for 5 minutes, with 20 slides that automatically advance every 15 seconds.
Barb's talk is titled “How Bikes Can Save the World." Check it out and let me know if you are convinced that bicycling will avert nuclear disaster (okay, that's probably not Barb's angle, but they can help with the obesity epidemic, reduce pollution, etc. etc.)
Tickets are $10 at the door or you can purchase them online for $5 at the Ignite Spokane link above.

They'll have video available soon and I'll put it on my blog.
Laughing about the nuclear disaster reference--if everyone had to BIKE away after triggering the device I have a feeling they wouldn't be setting off much ordnance of any type :D. (Even if you're Lance Armstrong it would be tough to clear the blast zone in time.)
@BarbChamberlain
I'll watch for the video, should be fun.
