Val and Faith are joined in the studio on this foggy autumn morning by Elliot Fishman, Director of the Institute for Sensible Transport. We kick off the show by sharing our respective bike moments before taling a look at some news including; the failure of #ametrematters legislation(link is external) to get through the Victorian Parliament, another stupid and avoidable crash with a moto(link is external) in professional racing, this time in the Giro D'Italia and a submission by the City of Sydney to have a cycling course count towards Learner Driver's 120 hours(link is external) log book total.

We then take a look at some recent examples of the Victorian Premier's language about cyclists(link is external) and how this plays out against a background of increasing emphasis on moving people and the efforts of local councils and government organisations to facilitate that.

We finish up with some events coming up this week including YogHURT at Brunswick Cycling Club(link is external) every Monday evening and the Central Victorian Atheists and Freethinkers(link is external) meeting in Kyneton on Wednesday.
