Where do you live and what’s it like riding in your city?
In Columbus, the bike scene’s getting bigger. It’s awesome
to see that more people are riding—from cruisers to
teched-out road bikes, and everything in between. There
have been some great initiatives in Columbus that are getting
people to ride bikes, and also educating them about
safety and maintenance.
What was your favorite city to ride in, and why?
I like riding in Chicago a lot—maybe it’s just because I
love the city itself and the fact that there are bike lanes. Or
maybe it’s the lack of hills...regardless, it’s super fun.
Why do you love riding in the city?
It’s a challenge—there’s always so much to pay attention
to—and you feel good dodging traffic and getting
where you’re going that much faster.
