On this episode of the RVA Bike Scene, Sean and I welcome special guest John Murden of Useful.bike, to talk about his new website that posts what’s happening with bike infrastructure around the city as well as his love for cargo bikes. John’s been biking forever and was part of the crew who got residents their own bike lane sweeper.

Plus we talk about more events and why it takes so long for infrastructure to get done.
