In this episode, Emma and Sara answer a follow up question to the "Biking through a world built for cars" episode on how to take people who say "not in my backyard" to active transportation projects to "yes in my backyard". Emma offers a suggestion to look for shared values, and Sara mentions that getting to test drive an eBike was something that helped her get over the initial barrier to active transportation.
