Zine / pamphlet. Published by Microcosm! The twelfth issue of the self-proclaimed "This American Life of feminist bike zines," explores the intersection of bicycling and religion, with surprising results. What do religion and bicycling have in common? It turns out, a bicycle has proven to be a path to tolerance, acceptance, and openness, whether of an idea, a community, or themselves. One contributor writes about her decision to drop out of seminary school to work at a bike shop. Another describes an encounter with a group of Orthodox cyclists leads a secular Jewish woman to discover new empathy for practices and gender roles she had never understood. A third contributor tells the story of how his passion for bicycling caused a crisis of faith...and gave him the means to resolve it. For a young woman growing up in Nebraska in the 1980s, her bicycle is her salvation from a religion that condemns her sexuality in a fourth story.
