About this listen
In this episode of No Fixed Agenda, hosts discuss the pressing issue of e-bike safety among youth, particularly in Southern California's coastal areas. They highlight the rise in accidents and fatalities involving young e-bike riders and the lack of effective safety training. The conversation features Grace Guerra, co-founder of Chain Reaction, a nonprofit dedicated to educating kids aged 12-17 on safe e-bike practices. The episode delves into the origins and goals of Chain Reaction, the challenges of getting parents and kids to take safety seriously, and potential collaborations with schools and e-bike manufacturers to make safety education mandatory. Grace shares stories from initial pilot classes and outlines ambitions to make Chain Reaction a primary resource for e-bike safety education.
