This week’s FIVE THINGS is with Saisha Harris, Creative Director, All-City Cycles. The Banjo Brothers were determined to score an interview with Ms. Harris after watching the video, "Quest for the Electric Queen" - which we consider one of one of the finest, most inventive, well-executed marketing projects we've ever seen in or out of the bicycle industry. On-target, inventive marketing is nothing new to All-City, but Harris seems to have a knack for connecting people to brands on an emotional level and simply making sh*t happen and getting sh*t done. We hope you enjoy this week's Five Things.

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 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.
