E584 – Summer Adventures & Bike Travel Dreams

October 11, 2021Adventure, Bicycling, Boats, Travelsprocketpodcast

As we dig out our rain pants and bike lights, Aaron, Armando, Guthrie, and Joan gather outside in person on a drizzly night to chat about the best of summer and discuss future bike dreams and adventures. Plus we share adventures and plans from listeners Brian, Hami, Emily, Brock, and @blackrtea.

Check out this video of a lovely Vancouver Island bikeway (mentioned by Joan, tweet via Martyn Schmool).

News & such
Josh Guttmacher sent us a few things: a great story (with photos!) about how Denmark is repurposing old wind turbine blades as bike shelters and a Nature article from 2008, “Bumper Stickers Reveal Link to Road Rage”(!). Thanks, Josh!

And, we mark about a year since Armando and Joan joined the podcast as co-hosts. Cheers!

E554 – Guthrie’s Adventures in 2020

February 19, 2021Adventure, Alternate Fuels, Beer, Bicycling, Boats, Camping, Cargo, Emergengy Preparedness, Food, Kayaking, Mountains, Simpler Living, Touring, Travel, Weathersprocketpodcast

Cohost Guthrie Straw took a very responsible, very intense and very isolated bicycle tour across Oregon last summer in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. How do you stay separated from others, avoid stores, and carry all your food while riding across the state? We talk about this. And a LOT about food.

See Guthrie’s photos here. (click link for more)

Also, as always, thanks to our nationally recognized “top beer bar in Oregon” beverage sponsor, The Beer Mongers on SE12th and Division, now open for more than 4,000 days consecutively. They have a patio outside the place and, if you’re lucky, you might be able to catch some sports with sound. The big stick remains indoor on the ceiling. And, as always, thanks to our generous Patreon donors that keep us going!

E551 – Jen Powis & Air Quality Monitoring By Bike

January 25, 2021Advocacy, Air Quality, Bicycling, Boats, Communication, Commuting, Infrastructure, Technology, Urban Design, Volunteering, Weathersprocketpodcast

Today, we speak with Jen Powis from Houston, Texas on air pollution and bicycles and measuring air pollution by bicycle. We discuss her experience with Sampling The City and Air Alliance Houston, Dr. Robert Bullard, (father of writing on environmental racism), Bike Houston, Houston’s Bayou Greenways, and her part in the Rules of the Game podcast! And, of course, the “chicken and the egg” question!

AND: apparently it was #boatmonth in Portland again. And, how to care for your birds during their own contagion time.

HEADLINES
Charging drivers to use roads can be equitable. Here’s how to guarantee it.

What Is the True Cost of Car Ownership?

MAIL
Well, a tweet: Peter Koonce, @pkoonce, transportation engineer and podcast guest tweeted a list of Top 10 podcasts for transportation professionals and included us!

Via Instagram, Junk Miles said, in response to our conversation about bike tours, “Super interesting answers, Joan and team – thank you!”

Answer for J Leko about studded tires from Doug CohenMiller: “I do studded tires. They are AWESOME for Ice. They make minimal difference on snow. I don’t have a Brompton, so I can’t speak directly to that, but maybe some sort of thick neoprene cloth could be carried on board and placed over the tire where it would hit so it doesn’t scratch.”

E550 – TEN YEAR PODSTRAVAGANZA

January 17, 2021Adventure, Advocacy, Bicycling, Boats, Building, Camping, Communication, Family, Fun, Touring, Travel, Urban Designsprocketpodcast

OMG people! It’s been 10 years since The Sprocket Podcast started dropping mp3s on the internet full of bicycle talk with a conscience. So grateful for your presence with us in this made-up imaginary space that in which nonetheless we’ve cultivated productive and challenging conversations about real issues and inextricably woven them into complete bullshit. That is why we love you!

For this 10 year anniversary and to mark the 550th episode of the podcast, we start with an acknowledgement of the time we are living through in the American democracy, toast Brock’s grandfather after his passing, acknowledge the ancestral occupants of the land we live in, and then get into some QUESTIONS.

rest in peace, Papa

WINTER BIKE LIGHTS
We are keeping the calendar on hiatus for now, but please do take some photos of how you are lighting your bike this winter. In line with local laws and regulations, we encourage you to add some more festive lights. If you do, take a photo, and share it with us on any of our social media, on Facebook at Sprocket Podcast, or Twitter or Instagram @SprocketPodcast and use the hashtag #sprocketwinterbike. Bring a bit of cheer to our days without much daylight.
of course we encourage you to follow any and all locally applicable regulations when riding your bicycle on public roadways.
