Episode notes
Several months ago I got an email from a guy in Lacross Wisconsin - James Longhurst. He asked if I’d like to read his book on the history of bicycles sharing the American road. It's called Bike Battles. Recently, he was kind enough to carve out some time during finals week at UW-LaCross, to discuss his book Bike Battles: A History of Sharing The American Road.
Thanks to James for sharing his book with us today - I really enjoyed it - and I also really enjoyed diving deeper into it with James - and I would encourage you to as well! It’s available at the University of Washington Press at www.washington.edu/uspress If you have any interest in the history of the bike in America - this is a great book! And also remember if you want to discover some incredible gravel riding in the driftless region, which includes southwest Wisconsin around LaCrosse, as well as parts of Minnesota and Iowa, just go to driftlesscycling.com.
