This episode of For Those Who Ride is all about biking year round! For a lot of people, the idea of biking in the winter is a hold back to taking up biking for utility more seriously.

To make riding in the winter more approachable, I was joined by the Executive Director of Bike Anchorage Alexa Dobson!

Topics discussed in this episode include:

• Tips for riding in the winter
• The considerations required for building year round infrastructure
• Examples of cities to take inspiration 
• Ways advocacy orgs can build stronger connections with their community
• Anchorage’s first bi-directional protected bike lane
• And so much more!
