"We don't want to have to put up ghost bikes anymore." 27 cyclists were killed in New York City in 2019, more than twice as many as in 2018. In this episode of Audio Interference, we speak with volunteers Ellen Belcher and Steve Scofield from the New York City chapter of Ghost Bikes, who install street memorials for cyclists who have been killed in traffic violence.

For more information on the memorials in NYC and around the world, check out their website: http://ghostbikes.org/ Thank you to Steve Scofield and Ellen Belcher for speaking with us.
