Some days, Holderness Street in Southwest Atlanta gets flooded with so many kids riding bikes that it reminds Shawn Deangelo Walton of a "mini Singapor".
He's partly to blame for the popularity of two-wheeled activity, thanks to a civic-minded small business he started to introduce youngsters to the joy of cycling and gardning. Walton is the founder of Wecycle Atlanta, an operation that stresses WHEELS: Work Ethic, Health, Environment, Economics, Leadership and Sustainability. It does so by giving young people in West Atlanta access to bikes, fresh produce and, of course, cycling!
