L.A. Bike Messenger Jimmy Lizama Talks Transportation, Success, Family, and Imagination.

Los Angeles bicycle messenger Jimmy Lizama recently gave a TED talk at U.C.L.A.

A bicycle messenger for the past 12 years, founder of the Bicycle Kitchen, and now a proud father, gives a colorful, enthusiastic (not to mention occasionally bare-footed and topless) insight into what it's really like to live car-free in the City of Los Angeles. 

Challenging the status quo ideals of success, parenthood, and transportation you won't want to miss it.




During a visit to L.A Eco Village not long ago, I had the opportunity to meet Jimmy and tour his shop. You can check out that interview below.
