David Byrne to attend Colombia forum on urban mobility

Former Talking Heads front man David Byrne will attend a forum on urban mobility in Bogota this Saturday.

The multi-instrumental Byrne is a fanatic bicycle enthusiast and will attend the forum to persuade city planners and municipal budget makers to allocate more money for bicycle lanes in Colombian cities.

The eccentric musician published a book, Bicycle Diaries, about his experiences riding bikes in different cities around the world in 2009 and designed several bike racks in his hometown New York City.
