E051 – Amos Hunter



Amos Hunter joins us this week to speak on the upcoming BikeCraft event (December 3 & 4, 2011 at Sandbox Studio) as well as his work with Portland’s own Bike Temple.  We drink Rock Bottom Brewery beer, and merriment ensues.  Also, here’s a link to the 8 peice ukelele band he’s in, Honky Tonk Prison.
