The Outspoken Cyclist – 3/26/2011

Have you ever special ordered a bike part though your local bike shop? Or perhaps you ride a Surly? Then you’re an indirect customer of Quality Bicycle Parts. This week we have the pleasure of speaking with QBP President Steve Flagg about what his company is doing, not only in business, but also in advocacy and in making its buildings better for the environment.

And from the technical to the historical, our second guest this week is Jim Elking, the Coordinator of the Bicycle Museum of America in New Bremen, Ohio.  Jim gives us a glimpse at what to expect on a visit to the museum, which boasts over 1,000 bikes, 300 of which are on display at any given time.

And in between, Diane and I squeeze in a bit of news, commentary and calendar.
