Paris Women & Bicycles – Photographs by Gil Garcetti

For about four years, Gil Garcetti photographed women riding bicycles in Paris. Women of all ages, smartly dressed, use bicycles to get to work, visit friends, go shopping, go to the movies or the opera, even to go to funerals! Garcetti is working with LACBC to help urban areas of Southern California encourage bicycle use and thereby reduce traffic congestion, improve air quality, and fight the growing epidemic of obesity in America.
