Jill Locantore & Rob Toftness: Lessons from Denver

We’ve now done 10 episodes of the podcast in our quest to understand why bike transportation still isn’t possible for most people in most cities. They’ve been pretty high-level conversations about the bike movement broadly. Over the next five episodes, we’re going local. We’re going to try to learn as many things as we can about how the bike movement is doing in cities across America by talking with the folks who know those cities best – the advocates who are trying to make bike transportation a practical reality. We’re starting in Denver, where Bike Streets is based, and my guests on this episode are two advocates whose work I have a lot of admiration for, Jill Locantore, Executive Director of the Denver Streets Partnership and Rob Toftness, co-founder of the Denver Bicycle Lobby.
