Dirtbag Diaries outdoor podcast biking education

Some of the most powerful learning can happen outside the classroom. In the summer of 1975, public school teacher Mr. Hodges took 22 of his students on an unforgettable bike trip that would impact the rest of their lives. Grab your cut-off shorts, a 10-speed bike, and a sense of humor, and you’ll be along for the ride.

    This story brought me to tears. I am very inspired, and truly hope that one day, I will have an idea to have fun with some humans, that results in life long memories.
    Thank you!
