How Critical Mass Became an SF Cycling Ritual

I've done more than my fair share of bike-related stories for KQED, so when Cy Musiker asked if I could produce a feature about the 20th anniversary of Critical Mass, I jumped at the opportunity. You can listen to the story here. (Photo by Chris Carlsson)

The Giving State - Black Girls Code

When I learned about Black Girls Code, I knew I had to pay them a visit. BGC is a non-profit organization in San Francisco that teaches girls as young as seven about programming, robotics, math, science, and engineering. This is another in The California Report's ongoing series about volunteers in California, called The Giving State. (Photo courtesy of Black Girls Code.)

Bike Party Shares the Road With Kids

As a cyclist, I've always been impressed by families who ride together. I see a lot of parents commuting with their kids, using various attachments and trailers. It all looks a little complicated to me, but I really admire their commitment to green transportation. So, I decided to check out the East Bay Bike Party's family friendly spinoff ride, called Geared for Kids. I filed this story for The California Report at KQED.
