In this People & Projects episode, Wendy interviews Stephen Hodge from We Ride Australia. The discussion highlights Stephen's background in riding bikes, from university competitions to promoting riding at a national policy level. They discuss the benefits of riding bikes for transport and health, the lack of infrastructure for safe bike paths, and innovative programs like 'RideScore Active Schools' to encourage children to ride to school. The conversation underlines the economic, social, and health benefits of riding bikes, and the importance of advocacy to improve bike infrastructure in Australia.⁠⁠⁠

Not Everyone Drives (NED) are conversations with people who don’t drive for any reason. They may have a disability, on medication, strapped for cash, too young, too old, unlicensed or they had a collision and now they’re too scared (you might be surprised why a person can’t drive and how the lack of alternatives impacts their daily living). This one’s for policymakers to understand the implications for their decisions.
