E363 Peter Koonce Talks Dutch Infra
Peter Koonce manages the City of Portland Bureau of Transportation’s Signals, Street Lighting, & ITS Division. Today, however, he regales us with tales of biking in every Cyclist-American’s go-to country for arguing infrastructure.
Yes, that’s right, we talk about biking in the Netherlands. Specifically, Delpht, NOT Amsterdam.
damn! I forgot to get a photo.
And as always thanks to the Beer Mongers for providing our tasty beverages
Speaking of The Beer Mongers… (from the Willamette Week)
A Local Business Totally Trolled Willamette Week—And It Was Awesome
BeerMongers twisted the WW logo and printed it on shirts
BeerMongers decided to have a little fun at our expense, twisting the WW logo into a BM logo and printing our criticism (“Right breweries. Wrong beers.”) on the back. We were both chastened and honored. The mark of a truly great trolling.

Guthrie and Aaron talk with Matthew, the man behind Chain Reaction (singular) and Give Them Bikes! “What are those?” Listen and find out.
Also, Aaron passes on a call from his middle niece, but calls her back because Aaron is weirdly committed to the things he says on twitter.
