More people are biking to work than ever before. Bicycling Magazine's Leah Flickinger joins us to reveal the publication's list of the top 25 most bike-friendly companies to work for. She explains how the magazine ranked companies based on facilities, wellness, culture, and activism.
Flickinger discusses why Colorado-based New Belgium Brewing earned the rankings' number-one spot.
