The Atlantic Gallery (135 W 29th St between Sixth and Seventh Aves; 212-219-3183, antlanticgallery.org) is hosting a free summer panel event tonight at 6pm: “Re-inventing the Wheel” will coincide with the gallery’s transit-themed summer group art exhibit, “Sic Transit Gloria: The End of the Road,” which is on view through July 23 and includes work by 59 artists, among them Meridith McNeal’s Brooklyn Day Dress (pictured).

The evening begins with a screening of Dutch photographer Ed van der Elsken’s Feitsen (”cyclists”), on special loan by the Annet Gelink Gallery in Amsterdam. The 1965 footage captures Dutch cyclists moving serenely over canals and bridges to the harmonies of Vivaldi’s “Spring.” Stick around for a discussion with the executive director of Transportation Alternatives Paul Steely White, who will lay down the law on biking rules; followed by a video presentation about street safety with Times Up! board member Steve McMaster. “Critical Mass is a worldwide movement that is not owned or created by any one group,” he says of the bike-group-cum-political-organization’s monthly rides through the city. “It’s just a citizen-led celebration of street life.”—Sophie Gore Browne
