Dorian Grilley is executive director of the Bicycle Alliance of Minnesota, an education, promotion and advocacy nonprofit. Previously he worked for the Parks & Trails Council of Minnesota and the Minnesota DNR. He serves on the board of the Alliance for Biking and Walking in Washington, D.C. He commuted by bicycle 25--30 miles daily for 25 years, raced for 10+ years and still rides a lot. He did his undergraduate work at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities and graduate school at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He and his family have lived in Mahtomedi for more than 20 years.
Bicycling more and driving less is a simple solution to some of our society's most complex problems. Dorian will discuss why bicycling is not seen as the easy choice for short trips, why it should be and what can we do to change that in Mahtomedi.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
