influencers!

On 1st September 2021, the next episode in the Influencers! series will be released with Charlie Farren, wife of the late Paul Farren who passionately collected bicycles from bygone eras, to establish the iconic Farren Collection.    As we walk through the history of cycling, Charlie talks about her past, her involvement in AusCycling and the Amy Gillett Foundation, and her instrumental influence in starting some of the great events in Australia, including her proudest achievement, the Great Victorian Bike Ride.   In this preview of the upcoming Episode Two, Charlie talks about her personal bike collection and how it forms part of her overall 'smorgasbord of transport' solutions.    Subscribe to our channel, to watch the full episode on 1st September 2021 or visit www.micromobilityreport.com.au/influencers to find out more.

Well-known TV presenter Osher Günsberg has a great passion and in-depth knowledge of all things cycling.   In the first episode of Influencers, we explore how Osher first became interested in cycling, how his cycling passion changed after he became a husband and father and a sought after media personality.   We take a journey through his experience overseas in the Netherlands, how the country made the decision to become a healthy transport nation and why he thinks Australia hasn't been able to make the same decisions.   We also discuss how cycling and exercise have played a role in his physical and mental health and he shares how his current endeavours involved on the board of the national cycling advocacy leader We Ride Australia, and his passionate support as an ambassador of World Bicycle Relief bring self-fulfilment.   Lastly, we explore all the things we can do to grow cycling and micromobility in 2021, and Osher shares why he thinks safe separated cycling infrastructure is the most important solution to transport issues and the future of people movement in major cities. He finishes off with his grand vision for cycling and active transport in the future encouraging everyone to get back on a bike.  To watch the video version of this interview, visit the Micromobility Report website.

Welcome to our monthly influencers! series in which we’ll be interviewing a wide range of people, both face-to face and via video link, throughout Australia and around the world to talk about the future of cycling and the growth of micromobility.    Everyone that we speak to on influencers! is making a difference in some aspect of cycling or micromobility. Some will be unsung heroes and others will be people that you might already know.   The motivation behind creating the series is to discover how each of us can advance the causes of cycling and micromobility within our own spheres of influence. We believe that everyone has a role to play and that your contribution, no matter how small it may seem to you, is significant.   Influencers! will provide you with a unique opportunity to profit from the insight and inspiration of our guests and enable you to make positive changes to your work life and personal life and help you to influence others around you, ultimately benefiting both you and our world.   We hope that you find the Influencers! series entertaining, informative and inspiring.   Please subscribe, leave a review and share this with your friends.
