E438x – Anniversary of Montana’s Statehood

November 9, 2018Beer, Bicycling, Clothing, Communication, Family, Fun, Housing, Infrastructure, Urban Design, Weathersprocketpodcast

One year ago, Aaron turned a year older and a few friends gathered at the studio after a recording to celebrate the anniversary of Montana’s statehood. Aaron has a special connection to that day, and we wanted to mark the occasion. Present were Aaron & Anna, Guthrie, Armando, Brock & Adele, and we’re sharing a minimally edited version of a live mic in the room with all of their permission. You get to be a fly on the wall for this celebration.

New studio show coming later this week. Enjoys!

E431 – Norm & Brad Do a Multimodal Commute

September 21, 2018Alternate Fuels, Bicycling, Car Ownership, Commuting, Infrastructure, Transit, Urban Design, Weathersprocketpodcast

Norm & Brad are commuters with a twist: they cover some ground by car from their faraway homes and then transform into bicycle commuters at the state line! Brad wondered for years who this person was – and, as it turns out, so did Brock! Norm is the smartest guy in the room, and involved with Bikes For Humanity. We talk commuting tips, raingear, and innovative solutions to traffic bottlenecks.

This week, Mike Cobb tells us about his departure from an ordinary bike mechanic’s life into a quest to design and outfit a bike that can respond to crisis situations. How do you mount a windmill to a bike? And why? Well, when the grid goes down, you know who to call. Mike details his outrageous cycle tour through the American southwest and what he terms “radical disassembly” to make a cargo bike fit into a prescribed box for shipping. Among other things!

Adele hasn’t been on the show in a while, and that’s because she’s been working on a secret project with Brock: they have a bun in the oven! That’s right, little baby Cyrus is preparing for birth into the world as we speak, and Adele joins the show to fill us in on what it’s like to continue bicycling into pregnancy. It’s not all fun and games, but haters gonna hate, and there aren’t that many haters, really. And there is a lot of fun to be had!
