Sara’s busy launching a bike share system in Memphis and leaves Kyle alone to helm the podcast this week. Not wanting to make this week a monologue on bicycles, Kyle recruits the help of long time friend of the podcast, Chris Johnson, Walk San José Program Manager. Returning to the podcast for the first time since leaving his position at Executive Director at Bike Fort Collins, Chris comes ready to talk PeopleForBikes’ new City Ratings, autonomous vehicles, policy versus practice, and the difference in biking and walking advocacy (so far). Spoiler free mini-discussion of the upcoming Star Wars film, Solo, and recent viewings of Avengers: Infinity War end the episode.
