Episode Three: Choose Your Own Adventure with Bike Summer
When Maximo Castro first moved to Portland from Tennessee, he didn't even have a bike - but now he's a Bike Summer ride leader who heads out for group bike rides all year long. In this episode we talk about Bike Summer and how this three-month long festival on wheels has helped one ride leader find community, healing, and joy as an act of resistance.
