Jeff Miller, the Alliance for Biking and Walking

We met at the recent California Bike Summit in downtown Los Angeles where Jeff had the distinction of giving the kick-off presentation, and now I know why — he electrified the assembled advocates and painted a clear picture of the challenges facing this country relating to health and our transportation choices. I had to get him on the Show.

Jeff Miller is the President/CEO of the Alliance for Biking and Walking based in Washington, DC. He wasn’t native to the Nation’s Capital; he’s from Maine, so what was it like making such a transition?

In Jeff’s presentation last month this slide had a big punchline for me. Notice the inverse correlation between biking and walking to work and obesity. Are we loving our cars to death? Obesity levels have tripled in the past few decades.
