On Friday, we interviewed Jack Castor, a former engineer turned TransAmerica HiWheel legend and the survivor of the internet famous Jack's Crash. Do get a listen as we talk about his ride, his spectacular crash and the antique bikes and cars that now fill his oceanside home.

The previous Friday we talked to Randy Schlitter, one of the pioneers of the present day recumbent movement. A man who among other things, under the company name, Rans, manufactures both bicycles and airplanes, we talk about the products he manufactures, the Sail Trike that got it all started back in the '70' and even the book he is writing that also has the capacity to provoke another whole new way of thinking.

In addition, our 2006 Mayors' Ride schedule is now out!! As a dry run for my 2007 Author Tour which will run from Boston to SF, we are still trying to see if we can mobilize enough staff to keep the Southeast and Pacific Coast a part of this excitement. Advise if you want to help. See:
