Thank you for posting, Dr. B!

A timely recommendation! I’m currently in Mumbai and have been noticing a lot more bikers and bike shops in my neighbourhood 😌
Love this! I’m an early PhD student in sociology planning to study intersections of migration, climate advocacy, and feminism. Excited to follow the work y’all are doing!
