David Herlihy, author of "Bicycle: The History," is coming to Proteus Thursday evening to discuss and sign his new book "The Lost Cyclist," which chronicles the journey of Frank Lenz, a photographer who took off on his bike from Pittsburgh in 1892 and wound up disappearing into Turkey. Herlihy will begin the evening with a short presentation before signing books, so come at 7 p.m. if you'd like to catch it. Proteus will have a limited number of copies of the book for sale. Per potluck protocol, you can grab some free grub between 7 p.m. and 9 p.m.
