As National Bike Month comes to a close, we’re talking bicycling on Wednesday’s Access Utah. Is biking a legitimate form of everyday transportation? Should more of us park our cars in favor of our bicycles? Could you get by without owning a car? Is your community bike-friendly? How can you stay safe while cycling? How can we better accommodate each other as drivers and bikers?

Our guests include Paul Rogers, of the Cache County Bike and Pedestrian Advisory Committee (BPAC); Stephanie Tomlin, Aggie Blue Bikes Program Coordinator, member of BPAC, and of the USU Sustainability Council; and Michael Bluejay, publisher of the website: www.bicyclesafe.com
