TUESD AY | 04.24 [C Y CLING] | JENNIFER SILVERBER G SHARED CUSTODY OF THE STREETS As the number of cyclists in St. Louis grows, Trailnet continues to raise awareness for this ever-expanding sector of the population. Its abundant calendar of events includes Trailnet on Tap , a speaker series. This week’s installment takes place at Urban Eats Cafe (3301 Meramec Street; 314-558-7580 or www.urbaneatscafe. com), with guest speaker attorney Karie Casey. Casey presents valuable information THIS CODE on the rights of cyclists TO DOWNLOAD THE FREE and what to do when RIVERFRONT TIMES IPHONE/ANDROID APP an accident takes FOR MORE EVENTS OR VISIT place and when it riverfronttimes.com is appropriate to get the police involved. Important for any cyclist, from the casual rider to the daily commuter, this free legal advice (first time you’ve ever seen that phrase, right?) is given from 7 to 8:30 p.m. So pull up a chair, eat a pastry (you’ll work it off on the ride home) and be glad that the next time an angry driver tries to run you off the road, you’ll know exactly what to do. — N ICOLE B ECKERT SCAN WEDNESD AY | 04.25 [LITERAR Y] | TALK PRETTY Audio books are usually a compromise — something for literary junkies to listen to while on the treadmill or during the morning commute when they’re too busy or exhausted for full immersion book-readin’. But given the choice to read When You Are Engulfed in Flames or to listen to David Sedaris read it to you in his pleasant, articulate manner (complete with that ever-endearing lisp), it’s hard to imagine anyone refusing the audio experience. Sedaris’ writing is already personal, delicate, poignant and somehow infinitely relatable, and his often self-deprecating words are more animated and enchanting when he breathes them into a microphone, whether they’re describing his awkward childhood or telling morality tales through talking squirrels and chipmunks. The Peabody Opera House (1400 Market Street; 314-499-7600 or www.peabodyoperahouse.com) welcomes Sedaris and all his pretty words at 7:30 p.m. this Wednesday, April 25. Tickets are $35 to $55, and Left Bank Books will be on hand selling Sedaris’ works for a signing that immediately follows. — C HRISSY W ILMES riverfronttimes.com APRIL 1 9-25, 2 012 RIVERFR ONT TIMES 19
