In this episode of Transit Tangents, we roll back the clock to explore how Carl Fisher, a bold entrepreneur and transportation pioneer, helped spark America’s love affair with movement—starting not with cars, but with bicycles. Before Fisher became synonymous with monumental road projects he was a passionate advocate for cycling who helped push for better roads.
This episode is a tribute to two-wheeled transportation, the early advocates who demanded better infrastructure, and the visionary who saw the potential for something even greater. Whether you’re a cyclist, a motorist, or just curious about how the roads beneath your wheels came to be, this episode will give you a whole new appreciation for the origins of modern transportation.
