E345 – Megan Ramey from Bikabout



 

Megan Ramey had a vision to simplify the good trip.  Why fret over car rentals, unfamiliar expressways with angry drivers, and spend half of your time dreading the drives to come when you could explore cities the way they are best experienced – by bike?  She and her family have been living the dream for some time, guiding others into relaxing, human-scaled city tours with their travel guides, and getting there in style on Amtrak.  We get the skinny on Bikabout.

E343 – Sarah Iannarone For Portland



Sarah Iannarone is the once and future queen of Portland.  In her bid for the last mayoral election she lobbied for safer and better streets as a means to equity for all residents of the city, and she is the only car-free mayoral candidate we can think of!  Crossing town by bus, foot and long-tailed cargo bike, she has enough good ideas for ten shows.  AND she serves the best biscuits & gravy around.  Here’s an hour, anyways!
