E337 – PJ makes some noise



PJ is a bike fun favorite of ours.  We chat about how to build an amazing sound system for your bike (that thumps).  We also discuss how to actively work for improvement in the city you live in, including after a traffic fatality, and gain the attention needed to spur your local officials towards action.

Also: Brock rides to the edge of the end of the world.
