In the first 10 minutes, Craig O’Neill, one of 3 partners of Treecycle, talks about their origins starting the arbor business on bicycle. They expanded and bought a truck, and now have just bought a bike trailer instead of a second truck (which would’ve cost 80 times more, if new).

For the bulk of the show, live guest Eli Damon and I, with support from Andy Singer’s book “Why We Drive: the past, present, and future of automobiles in America”, talk about bikes and cars, how to bike more safely (www.cyclingsavvy.org), and some history of how automobiles have shaped our culture.
