Marc Shapiro, this year’s t-shirt design contest winner, grew up in the suburbs of Minneapolis and graduated with a degree in Graphic Design from UW-Madison. After college, Marc lived in Chicago for five years. He started bicycling to work and it wasn’t long before he discovered The L.A.T.E. Ride. Marc is happy to be riding for a fifth time this year. He says, "There’s nothing better than riding through the neighborhoods of Chicago at night with thousands of other cyclists." While no longer a Chicago resident, Marc tries to get back as often as he can. He currently works as a graphic designer in St. Louis Park, Minnesota.
