EP 07 - Bike Cleveland, Guerrilla Urbanists, and E-Bikes


Listen Later

In this episode, Anton is joined by special guest John McGovern to engage in discussion regarding sustainable transportation and rethinking modern transit systems.

Segment 1: John tells Anton about the genesis of Bike Cleveland, a non-profit organization in Cleveland that advocates for sustainable transportation--specifically cyclists.

Segment 2: Anton discusses the important work of guerrilla urbanists and the dire need for more policy to keep cyclists safe.

Segment 3: Anton explains the benefits of e-bikes as an alternative for car transportation. A bill in congress could incentivize others to get their own e-bikes to make urban commutes a whole lot more sustainable with up to a $1500 tax credit when purchasing a new e-bike!
