E352 – Andrea & David on Equity In The Bike Shop

The Community Cycling Center offers bicycles & service to people who might otherwise experience barriers to access.  Andrea Chiotti is the bridge between the shop & the office and cares a lot about engaging youth in mechanical skills. David Kurushima recently moved on to other things but appeared on our show before as their shop’s retail manager.  We have a lively discussion about access, privilege, and apprenticeship. Thanks to our generous sponsor The Beer Mongers and our Patreon donors that keep us going!
