Colin Evans (emergency physician) and I chat about why (and how) he ditched his massive GMC Sierra pickup truck for an Urban Arrow cargo bike. This simple change saves his large family (wife and four daughters) over $10,000 per year, while not sacrificing anything - actually gaining more time with his family! We explore a LOT of topics, but some include: Near-misses with aggressive driversWinter biking essentialsCargo bike durability testWhy hospitals fail cyclistsThe “honking paradox”Truck culture psychologyBike vs. car community connectionsTeaching kids street smartsEmergency vehicle mythsSuburban vs. urban bikingEmotional shift from truck to bike identityCargo bike as conversation starterWhy cable locks failBike infrastructure in new developmentsHandling left turns with kidsTrue cost of car ownershipSchool commutes by bikeGarbage truck safety policiesUrban Arrow maintenance hacksPolitical barriers to bike lanes================Get early access to videos and exclusive behind-the-scenes content, like our extensive brainstorming sessions, full interviews, and video commentaries over at https://www.patreon.com/bendurhamDo you have an insider tip or unique information on a story?
