Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Consensus can be a tough thing to find among the disparate factions of the cycling community in Denver -- Critical Mass, the Cherry Creek bike trail and the use of gears are some common areas of contention -- but it appears there is at least one thing we all can agree on (besides turn signals -- we all really hate it when drivers don't use them): Art about bikes is awesome. On Friday night, and again on Saturday, Super Ordinary Gallery unveiled its second annual ARTCRANK exhibit, brought to Denver by gallery owners Tran and Josh Wills, in collaboration with Minnesota promoter Charles Youel, who first conceived it as away to unite the bicycle community. Great Success! Turns out we all can just get along.
We sent our man Britt Chester to check out Friday night's opening. He brings back these photos.

Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
