One of his stops was the Petaluma Animal Shelter. Kaye Chandler created and posted video coverage on Vimeo. In this video Bixby & Mike were greeted by the Yuba Bicycle crew.
Why was the Yuba Bike crew there? Bixby and Mike are traveling across the country on a Yuba bike. How cool is that? The bike they ride is built by a Petaluma company. Maybe Yuba can create a new line of bikes call the Bixby. If you have not heard of Yuba cargo bikes you have to check out their website.
