Three chances to meet Great Philly Cheesesteak Book author Carolyn Wyman

Longtime CP contributor/copy editor Carolyn Wyman (above) has written The Great Philly Cheesesteak Book, a detailed paean to our city's quintessential between-bread draw. While you're going to have to wait until tomorrow's issue hits the stands (or peep our site tonight!) to read an exclusive excerpt of CW's grease-stained opus, it's important we let you know about three chances you'll have to meet the author and hear more about her work.

Tomorrow, June 25: Carolyn will be in the house at the Bellevue (Broad and Walnut) at noon to celebrate the grand reopening of the embattled Rick's Steaks. Books will be available for purchase.

Saturday, July 11: You have to know Carolyn to know this, but she is a badass on two wheels. On this day, she'll be leading a 12-mile bike ride to eight different cheesesteak shops. Starts at Sonny's and Campo's in Old City, ends at Pat's and Geno's, with Johnny's Hots, Tony Luke's, Philip's and Cosmi's in between. The ride is free (pay as you go/meat-sweat for steaks � $2 sample sizes will be available), but you have to pre-register.

Wednesday, July 22: Carolyn will read from The Great Philly Cheesesteak Book as part of a 50-minute lecture/slideshow at the Free Library at 7:30 p.m. This event is free and open to the public.
