Via Instagram, Junk Miles said, in response to our conversation about bike tours, “Super interesting answers, Joan and team – thank you!” Answer for J Leko about studded tires from Doug CohenMiller: “I do studded tires. They are AWESOME for Ice. They make minimal difference on snow. I don’t have a Brompton, so I can’t speak directly to that, but maybe some sort of thick neoprene cloth could be carried on board and placed over the tire where it would hit so it doesn’t scratch.” Fine Print Produced at home thanks to: music: Ryan J.

This week’s episode combines an interview from 2011 with bike builder Tom, who used to run Tom’s Cargo Bikes, and a few conversations with EJ & Eric, previous owners of his craftsmanship from 2020. Producer Brock currently owns and rides #53 (lamplighter tall) & #95 (EJ’s bakfiets). Eric’s cargo swingbike is currently in the custody of the Corvidae Bicycle Club. We’re looking forward to bringing you another new studio show soon! Tom’s Cargo Bikes built all kinds of conveyances from repurposed bicycle frames in style and with finesse. Tom gave us the rundown on how he got into this pastime, how he cut his chops on the skills necessary, and what he’s done with the bikes he builds. His website is no longer active, but you can follow the hashtag #tomscargobikes to see some of the bikes out in the world, and view many of his creations on his Flickr page. We discussed individual builds, growing up in Montana and fixing up muscle cars, moving to the city and getting out of regular car use, massive snowstorms, cargo bikes at Alaska Air, learning the terminology, 50 bikes built, Spin Art Bike, Yolo Colorhouse, blender bike, the Xtracycle,Multnomah County Bike Fair, Bikes for Humanity, bake feets, proprietary steering systems, “it’s all in beta,” marshmallow roasting, bass player uses cargo bike, Dutch sperm cargo bike, an unwitting bidding war, Tom’s Portland hotel bike serves beer & coffee, and environmental pragmatism.

this week we’re sharing a portion of an episode recorded with Dan Gebhart (who’s a time traveler) in his memory. The Portland bicycle community lost Dan on September 22 according to an article on BikePortland.org, and we will miss him dearly. A ride in remembrance is planned for him on Sunday, October 18 at 2pm starting at the Mt. Scott Community Center. Soren Impey & Dan Gebhart are involved with Bike Loud PDX and drop in to explain why streets don’t have to be dangerous to work, and what their organization is doing to catch the attention of Oregon’s legislators. They’re riding from Portland to Salem to make their voices heard! Also: Aaron washes a hat. Fine Print Produced at home thanks to: music: Ryan J.

We joined Tim at the Pedalshift Project for an edition of his Bicycle Tour Draft, a “fantasy draft pick” exercise in which we assemble our hypothetical gear for a hypothetical tour. As with any fantasy sport, the competition can get heated, and small things turn into big things! Cast your vote for the winner – Tim says: “Winner will be determined by fancy RANKED CHOICE VOTING, a super cool and superior way to vote. Click here to rank your top 4 (just drag and drop the names in order) and the winner is crowned! We’ll tally results at midnight on July 1st. Again… you have the rest of June eastern time to vote… who has the better tour setup?”

first this week, a message from Brock, Aaron & Guthrie that BLACK LIVES MATTER. we need to do better at hearing and elevating black voices in America. please join us in listening, learning, and changing. We all have a collection of bike parts if we do any amount of maintenance on our machines, and after Aaron posted a photo of an obscure part, we invited Andy from the Oregon coast and Yang from Colorado to tell us about their collections when they demonstrated their technical knowledge by identifying the mysterious component.
