Mikael Colville-Andersen is known as Denmark's bicycle ambassador. His approach to urban cycling promotion are well known through his blog Copenhagenize.com, and his Copenhagen cycle chic blog helped launch the global bicycle boom. He was born in Fort McMurray and grew up in Calgary.

He will speak on his four goals for promoting urban cycling, and about "bicycle culture by design" — how the current traffic planning mindset is outdated and how design can create a mainstream bicycle culture.
