Last Tuesday's Green Professionals Mixer -- featuring actor and cycling advocate Matthew Modine -- drew a record crowd and record support for NYLCV!

Actor and cycling advocate Matthew Modine was our special guest.Scores of people turned out for the event, held at the fantastic Revision Lounge in Alphabet City, to mix, mingle and exchange ideas about ways to go green.

Modine spoke about his passion for cycling as well as his initiative, Bicycle for a Day. The group's mission is to empower individuals with tools which they can use in their everyday lives to make a measurable, tangible difference to our community, our environment and our personal health.
