In The Shed - Episode 33

Broadcast on:
06 Dec 2024

Happy Friday everyone. It sure was nice to have Eva back in The Shed after a few week holiday hiatus. This episode was meaty! Here are a few of the things we talked about:

  • "How'd She Get There?" segment was Sellwood to Lake Oswego (including some very scary options).
  • Why Eva is creeped out by lobster-style bike gloves (something about the devil).
  • Michael Reiss and his amazing leaf sweeping work.
  • Why I think it's time for PBOT to privatize bike lane maintenance
  • I went on a huge rant about all the Vision Zero drama going on with PBOT, the PPB, and so on.
  • The 82nd Ave Plan that was just adopted at City Council and why some transportation advocates don't like it.
  • Why pitting bikes against transit (like PBOT is doing on 82nd) is a no good, very bad idea.
  • The new Bike Happy Hour location on N Williams Ave.
  • Closure of Cynergy E-Bikes
  • And more.

Thanks for listening!
