About this episode
It’s officially bicycle-riding season in Portland, but buying a new one can lead to a ton of questions: There are so many types of bikes now. How do you choose? How much should you be prepared to spend? And how the heck do you find one that fits? Today on City Cast Portland we’re talking with cycling expert Leah Benson . As the former owner of the dearly-missed Gladys Bikes on Alberta Street, she’s helped hundreds of Portlanders find the perfect bike for them.
