Tom shares what inspired him to start the Channel, we look back to some of the earliest videos as well as his most popular creations, we naturally discuss winter cycling (how could we not?), and then we shift gears to discuss recent trends and the challenges facing communities as they attempt to push back on the status quo car dependency and motonormativity.Thank you so much for tuning in!
