Summary

I sit down 1-on-1 with Michael Schneider, “L.A.’s unapologetic biking evangelist” as he makes a fascinating case as to why Los Angeles needs to change its car culture to bike culture? We discuss the new bike lanes popping up all over, why they’re always empty, and how he plans to spearhead converting all of us to two wheels! Michael is a reformed “car addict” and founder of Streets for All, the group that was front and center in pushing through Measure HLA, which mandates the city build its own bike and bus lanes.

0:00.0	Yo, welcome to another episode of In A Minute with Evan Lovett, coming to you live from the IAM
0:13.8	studios.

1:02.2	I do want to say this episode is brought to you by Culver City Toyota,
1:05.6	who is our proud sponsor and great people. And for people who do need a pre-owned or new Toyota,
1:09.6	head on over to Culver City Toyota on Washington and go talk to George.
1:13.6	He's a general manager.
1:14.6	He'll give you $500 in dealer cash for a new or pre-owned.
1:18.6	That's Culver City Toyota.
1:20.6	And I want to lead with that because Culver City has been a recurring topic on this show because Culver City is one of the first
1:30.5	and perhaps most thoroughly mass transit oriented neighborhoods in Los Angeles.
1:37.3	Would you agree with that, Michael?
1:38.7	Transformed.
