A Billion Bikes

A BILLION BIKES celebrates the universal bicycling experience for both beginning and veteran riders, and those curious about cycling evolution in their own communities and around the world. Programs explore flourishing bicycle cultures, strategies for regular riding, and the sheer fun of being personally mobile in a modern lifestyle. Viewers ride along through European cities and Asian villages, share strategies with bike designers, chat with city planners, learn from experienced mechanics, help children (and adults!) learn to ride, visit antique bicycle museums, test equipment and clothing, join in on charity rides and family weekends, commute to work through city streets, and even bring home the weekly groceries.

There are now a billion bikes in the world. Which one will find you? Produced by CookStudios.TV. More info at ABillionBikes.TV.

BIK102 (3of6) On the Canal (6:51)

On the Canal, Part 3 of 6. Leaving Harpers Ferry with John Urman (OnTheCanal.org), we track the southern edge of Maryland to Shepherdstown, Antietam and Williamsport. We’re halfway to Cumberland on the C&O Canal and enjoying a beautiful and relaxing spin through American history in this excellent program.

First, we hit the dirt for a quick hello from Austin Steo with the Midatlantic Off Road Enthusiasts at MORE-mtb.org , a group that not only develops the sport of off-road bicycling, but participates in the responsible design and maintenance of the trails themselves.
