New bike day is great, but have you heard of new host day? Joan is delighted to introduce new Sprocket host Emily Guise. Joan and Emily discuss the kind of bicycling we do and what to call it (utility cycling? commuting and transportation? joyriding?) along with tips for riding your bike in sequins and that popular $500 ebike deal. Plus, Joan announces some retirements and other podcast changes.

Discussed in this episode:
Pleasure Activism: The Politics of Feeling Good by adrienne maree brown
The @streetsblogkea tweet about biking as pleasure activism

The Sprocket Podcast is produced by Emily Guise, Armando Luna, and Joan Petit.
