With me (BikePortland founder and publisher Jonathan Maus) being unexpectedly away from Portland for two weeks helping my dad in the hospital (he'll be fine), my In the Shed co-host Eva Frazier got antsy and decided to record a conversation with our friends Armando Luna and Shawne Martinez. This trio packs a whollop of bike fun between them and this fun chat will have you smiling and looking forward to summer.

Here's a taste of what they talked about...

• Why Armando insists he's the Bike Fun Mayor, not the Bike Mayor.
• How basketball can help you become a safer bike rider
• Fender etiquette
• Pedalpalooza ride memories
• Why Armando isn't a Naked Bike Ride guy
• Leaf blower noise and how gas lawnmowers support kids riding bikes in Oregon
• and more!!
