On this 2026 Radiothon show, Chris and Val discuss the 50th anniversary of 3CR launching across airwaves alongside community radio in Australia. Our interview this week is Hayden from Tradies on Bikes, a electrician based in Thornbury who discusses getting started, development and logistics for running his business on a cargo bike.
News includes Bicycle Network strategy day for 5% for safer streets, Off Course bike shop fire sale and rapid resurgence and La Velocita: Build the damn bike lanes:

Poetry reading: Val recites The Man with Rubber Pedals and Mulga Bill's Bicycle, both being possible forerunners to modern day Strava PBs amongst other things.
