Motivation to Move w/ Movetia Salter (video available)

In this episode, I connect with Movetia Salter, a resident of the Mueller community in Austin, TX for a conversation about her transformative cycling story rooted in a cancer diagnosis, a new city across the country, and her rediscovery of the joy of riding a bike, especially with others.Watch the video version of this episode to get the full effectAustin's Movetia Salter caught my attention when she was recently featured in a PeopleForBikes video highlighting the progress the city has made in building out its high-comfort bike network. I was delighted when she agreed to chat with me on the Podcast and I suspect you will be as moved and inspired by her story as I was.Helpful Links (note that some may include affiliate links to help me support the channel):- People For Bikes video- City Thread (Sara & Kyle)- Major Taylor Austin Cycling- Austin Black History Ride - Get There ATX - Austin’s Yellow Bike Project - Ghisallo Cycling Initiative - Priority Bikes (my affiliate link)- Ep 72 with Briana Cohen - Ghisallo Cycling Initiative - My playlist of Austin’s Dutch-inspired Cycle Network Four Easy Steps to Support My Efforts:1.
