FIVE THINGS is a weekly feature on the Banjo Brothers Blog. It’s a short interview about life and bicycles with a notable person. This week’s FIVE THINGS is with the woman who might just save the bicycle industry, Arleigh Greenwald. For eight years Arleigh was the voice behind the popular women's cycling specific blog, Bikeshop Girl. At the same time she was running bike shops and working in bicycle advocacy. Like always, she's got a lot on her plate. The mother of two has a newborn, two start-up businesses and a new podcast.

This week’s FIVE THINGS is with cyclist and food policy expert Elisa Muñoz. We first met Ms. Muñoz when she co-founded the Bici Bicycle Cooperative in Birmingham, Alabama and when she was the co-author of the popular (and since retired) cycling blog, Bikeskirt. Easy and equal access to cycling was and still is a goal of the co-op. A relatively new Mom, and now a New Orleans resident, Muñoz and her young son are starting to get back into cycling.
