Come join me as I lead a bike ride through Silicon Valley. We will look at the birth of computing and the internet, the history of LSD and hackers, traces of what used to be and what replaced it, metaphors of computing and the social spaces they emerged from, office parks and nature preserves, and the material infrastructures in the birthplace of personal computing.

The ride will be around 20-25 mostly flat miles at a slow pace with a lot of stops to look at things. There will be one beer/snack stop and a stop at the Computer History Museum. I will be printing up maps for riders and there will be some surprises! Then we’ll roll into the opening of the ZERO1 Street Festival around 6 or 7pm.
