Paris: Women & Bicycles

I just came across this book of photography by Gil Garcetti called Paris: Women & Bicycles. Apparently, Garcetti has been photographing women on bicycles for a few years, and as always, it seems that the French bicycle with style. 

Now, he's releasing a book of his photography. Looks like a great coffee table book, for both the bicycle-obsessed and the francophile. Even the mayor of France has endorsed the book, calling it "elegant."

Interestingly enough, the book is a part of a community bicycling initiative in Southern California. I haven't seen much more about how the book is actually impacting the community, but the idea interests me.
