I have exciting news for you! Cailynn Klingbeil, who developed an online course with Tom Babin, the founder of Shifter, titled The Ultimate Guide to Bike Commuting and Urban Cycling, approached me about sponsoring my podcast. This was an easy yes for me, because I adore Cailynn and Tom, and because Tom's YouTube channel was the catalyst to help me become a full-time, year-round bike commuter. I've also met Tom in person several times, and I'm lucky to call him my friend. I've also chatted with Cailynn several times online, and hope to have her as a guest on here, one of these days.

I know the bicycle is already a huge part of your life, but chances are you know someone who is a little bike-curious and wants to know what it would take for them to jump over to the bike side.

If you send them this link right here, I make a commission on sales, which helps to pay for my costs to keep this podcast running, just like the contribution you make every month!

I met Laura on the old Twitter when I was trying to understand what it would take to become a winter cyclist, and we have been online friends since. Laura has recently started a cargo bike lending library, inspired by the transformation that a cargo bike had on her own life.

I KNOW you'll be inspired! I'd love to hear from you about your favourite takeaway from this episode. Send me a voice memo right here!
