Bicycles Diaries

What started off simply as a preferred means of transportation for David Byrne eventually turned into a way of life. With a fold up bicycle, a notebook and a sense of freedom, he cycled through cities all over the world meeting artists, musicians and observing urban living throughout the globe. Bicycle Diaries takes you on a ride from the perspective of a bike seat to places like Buenos Aires, London, New York City and Berlin. Through casual writing with a hint of humor and plenty of curiosity, David offers his personal insights about various cultures and peoples and what you can learn about a city based on the condition of its roads.
