Bike Life Radio: Major Taylor

Countless books have been written about him, so why hasn't a movie been made about legendary cyclist Major Taylor? Could it be because Taylor was an African American who beat white cyclists in this largely white sport in the 1890s? What we do know is that a movie promoting Taylor's story could inspire minority youth to get into the sport. Now, an award-winning movie producer is working on a movie about Taylor and coming to Reno to give a talk on September 22 at the Reno Public Market at 7 p.m. followed by a film festival. We will talk to him in this show and talk to people at Food Truck Friday who are using the new Bike Valet, sponsored by the event.
