I’m am, or used to be before it was all canceled, a touring musician. I’ve spent a ton of time traveling the world, and to see the way many places use bicycles is really interesting and cool to me. I love the cargo bikes and family bikes you see in some places. I’ve spent a lot of time in Amsterdam, Copenhagen, etc and these places are kind of bicycle utopias with few cars, little pollution, and likely a whole lot safer roads.

Yup. And it wasn’t always that way there. They decided that’s the way they wanted to go so they went there

Just so you know, someone rides their bike to Berklee [not a mispeeling] with their contrabass.

We do it here and now.

Exactly. Who are these people saying you can't? And why are you listening to them at all?
