E039 – I Love The Bus



We speak with Sally, the author of the I Love The Bus website, about her experiences on public transit in Portland, Oregon.  We also discuss LL “Stub” Stewart State Park & the Banks Vernonia Trail, getting excited about transit, misconceptions and reality, long distance transit trips (PDX – SEA northbound & southbound), meeting people in public space, and more.

Jonathan Maus of BikePortland.org joins our show next week, Rosa donates her contest prize to our beer fund, Logan finds us Dan Price’s phone number for simple living consultations (541-398-2299), Antonio shares a link to the dyno hub at clever cycles, and we request more indie music submissions.
