What if your bicycle, that ultimate green form of transportation, could generate electricity? The thought that has crossed all our minds at one time or another was actually put into practice by Dan Aukofer and his co-conspirators, Dan O’Brien and Chuck Smith. With eight bicycles to start, they generated electricity for the lights as well as the power for Deb and Dan Aukofer’s band, Soul Purpose, which performed in their barn in Waukesha.
Meet Isaiah, or Ike as his friends call him. He said you could “put down anything” for his last name.
You may have seen him pushing his shopping cart on the sidewalk outside your house or along alleys, always with trash bags fat with aluminum cans draped over each side. Ike’s bloodshot eyes and weathered hands speak for his experience: an admittedly hard life spent on these streets.
Ike was born in Eupora, Mississippi, and moved to Wisconsin 13 years ago with his wife and two children. Today he calls Riverwest his home.
