@CUDenver @DenBicycleLobby @SteveStaeger #KilledByATrafficEngineer is poised to be one of the most important “streets” books of our time.

@CUDenver Terrific turnout for Wes that also felt like a celebration of the Denver urbanist advocacy/activist community, featuring a @DenBicycleLobby shout out.
