On this first episode of season 2 I talk with Richmond bike advocate, bike race organizer, cyclocross enthusiast and all around bike nerd Sean Yeager.
I first met Sean when I was covering a local crit circuit race in Bryan Park in the city–a race that’s been going on for over 50 years. You can hear that story here.
Since then, Sean and I have been in contact off and on–he leant me some really amazing books on the history of bikes in Richmond and other books. And, he’s also tried to get me to go to some local cyclocross races–plus, he also recently helped me with an issue on my bike.
Besides all of that, Sean is also an advocate for getting kids on bikes and making sure there are safe spaces for them to ride to schools and parks, which what we talk about Sean also knows some good spots for kids to ride as well.
