Bikes in Space by Elly Blue
A reader of science fiction since she was a child, Elly Blue elected to make this issue of Taking the Lane into a powerful tribute to feminist sci-fi about bicycles. It gravitates away from the unfortunately-traditional macho heroes, hurtling through space with giant guns, ready to protect and/or tame their scantily clad space babe. Elly's visions of the future are populated by strong, intelligent, empowered women with complex personalities. And it was a vision apparently shared by many: It's the largest issue of TTL yet! Help us fend off this space shark attack in style! Ieeeee!

Strong female characters pedal through dystopian futurescapes; robots ponder the meaning of life as racers power past; fantastic creatures ride out to hunt even as the politics of their world shift under them. The original collection of feminist bicycle science fiction stories.
