Since she first rode a bike at 5, Mary Frances Dunham (MFD) has made it her mission around the world to encourage the use of bikes instead of cars.  In the early 1970s, she was among the original handful of members at Transportation Alternatives  advocating for better bike awareness and support in New York City.  She has spread her message and her enthusiasm for bikes wherever she has traveled.  Riding her fold-up Dahon bike down city streets in the USA, Europe, Asia, and Central America, she has set an example to us all that a bike is  the best way to get around regardless of age, income or gender.
