(OHIO NEWS CONNECTION) - Today is National Bike to Work Day, and while it may sound "easier said than done," it may not be as daunting as you think. Enthusiasts said the benefits of commuting by bicycle outweigh the drawbacks. Besides saving money on gasoline and vehicle expenses, research suggests it can increase productivity on the job by improving cognitive performance and lowering stress. Chuck Smith, chair of the Ohio Bicycle Federation who lives in Vandalia, logged more than 50,000 miles in 22 years on his bike commuting to his job at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. He explained there are more than 300 miles of connected paths in the region, which makes cycling a practical way to get around. "Got out early in the morning and I had a good hill to go down," Smith recounted. "On a chilly morning, if that didn't wake me up, nothing would. And then the Great Miami Trail I took on the way home from work. It improved my outlook. Just a wonderful thing." For especially long commutes, advocates suggest mixing biking with public transit. Nationally about 0.5% of workers ride a bike to work, and 20% of all bicycling trips are to "earn a living." Lack of sidewalks and paths, traffic volume and speed and unsafe motorist are the top barriers to biking for most Ohioans.

Today's Friday the 13th, 2022, and it's time for your weekly News Roundup episode, where I read the news so you don't have to. A lot happened last week and there's a lot coming up in terms of local events and things to do that you won't want to miss, including things going on tonight, so don't wait to listen! As always, you can find the show notes for this episode on my website at discoverdaytonpodcast.com.    Organizations mentioned in this episode include: Ohio Statehouse Central State University Sinclair Community College City of Dayton Ghostlight Coffee 2nd Street Market Gulzar's Indian Cuisine AES Five Rivers Health Centers Dayton Peace Prize Dayton Council on World Affairs Hall Hunger Initiative Heart Mercantile Mission of Mary's CSA Dayton Women's Rights Alliance Top of the Market Liftoff Entertainment Humane Society of Greater Dayton Blind Bob's  Shiloh Farmer's Market NCCJ Dayton Beer Company Liederkranz-Turner German Club Salar Wiley's Five Rivers MetroParks The Neon Yellow Cab Tavern TheatreLab Dayton PNC Arts Annex   Show Transcript:   Hello and welcome to the Discover Dayton podcast, the show that's all about the Gem City's past, present, and future. I'm Arch Grieve and I'm your host, and today's episode is the weekly news roundup for Friday the 13th of May 2022, so if you're superstitious be careful today. There's a lot that happened last week though, including an update to Ohio's redistricting process, good news for Dayton residents on their electric bills, and the opening of some new places to eat downtown, as well as lots of stuff to do this weekend and beyond, so stay tuned!   And now for last week's news:   Well, the news about the Ohio congressional district maps isn't great, as towards the end of last week the Republican-dominated Ohio Redistricting Commission voted down a set of maps drawn up by the consultants that they hired, and then immediately voted to approve a set of maps that the Ohio Supreme Court has already declared unconstitutional. Protestors in attendance yelled “shame,” at the commission members, but their cries were ineffective in causing any type of change amongst the members because the Republican members of the commission have no shame. Secretary of State Frank LaRose, who is a commission member, explained his rationale for supporting the third set of maps by claiming that it would be the easiest set of maps for local boards of elections to use. At the end of the meeting, Democratic Minority House Leader Allison Russo read out a “minority report,” which laid the blame for the redistricting process mess at the feet of her Republican counterparts.    Also happening at the state level right now is discussion around a bill that would put an end to local municipalities' abilities to manage short-term rentals, such as Airbnbs. House Bill 563 is currently being debated at the Ohio Statehouse, with opponents of the bill saying that it would take away home rule from cities and curtail their ability to self-govern, so now is your time to contact your local representative or senator if you have an opinion about it.    Central State University's Dayton Campus is getting a cash infusion from the U.S. Department of Commerce, which is awarding the HBCU $3.6 million in ARPA funds to quote, “tackle workplace shortages,” which have been made worse by the pandemic. Much of the money will go towards funding workshops that are geared towards educating students about advanced materials, advanced manufacturing, IT, and advanced data management. Central State is also putting in an additional nearly $90K towards its Workforce Training and Business Development Center, which will specialize in employment-related training. As a result of the expansion, Central State is expecting a 50% increase in enrollment this fall and expects to go from 2,000 students to 3,000 who are physically attending campus classes, and from 4,000 to 7,000 students attending online.    Just for full transparency for this next story, I need to acknowledge that I am a Sinclair employee, but Sinclair has had some good news recently in that it graduated a record number of students at last week's graduation ceremony, with 8,919 students being awarded degrees or certificates, or a 14% increase over last year. Of those, a record number were also black men, 1,548 students to be exact, as well as a record number of minority students at just over 3,000.    There's good news for Dayton residents recently from the city, which is that they recently announced that residents will be getting 100% renewable energy starting in June of this year which will be 30% cheaper than AES Ohio's standard service rate, which is the company that used to be DP&L. They also assured residents that Dayton will not be impacted by the recent rate hikes proposed by AES thanks to the new aggregation program. Savings are expected to average approximately $300 per Dayton customer over the 12-month period that the deal is in effect, for a total of $10 million combined for all residents in savings. If you wish to participate in the program, you don't have to do anything, but if you wish to opt-out then letters are being sent out soon.    There's good news for Ghostlight Coffee fans, which is that you can now find them on weekends at the 2nd Street Market. They're opening a bagel bakery there called DOUGH. Ghostlight owner, Shane Anderson, told the Dayton Daily News that he always wanted to have a location in the market, but that there was already a coffee shop there. However, they learned recently that there was an opening for a sandwich shop, so they put forward the concept of a bagel soup and sandwich shop, and now they're in the soft opening phase of its existence. They plan to release more items moving forward, but you can also find them at their original location on Wayne Ave. or over next to Old Scratch on Patterson Blvd. They'll also soon be coming to the Dayton Arcade.    In other news-related food, I'm sure many of you will be as excited as I am to learn that there's a new Indian restaurant in downtown Dayton now. The family-owned Gulzar's Indian Cuisine opened last Thursday at 217 N. Patterson, just across from the Dragon's stadium and next to Winans and Flyboys. Wife and husband Deepika and Jay Singh co-manage the restaurant together, and Jay's brother manages the family's other restaurant in Richmond, Indiana. The restaurant features authentic Indian cuisine, including my favorite, chicken tikka masala, but if you're looking for their most authentic dishes you can find those on the menu under Chef Specials. They also have a lunch buffet, which is $13.99. You can find their menu and learn more at gulzarsindiancuisine.com. I just had lunch there earlier this week and I definitely recommend it!   There's a new Five Rivers Health Centers campus in the Edgemont neighborhood of Dayton after they held its grand opening Wednesday of this week. The campus location will provide a number of different health services, including dental care, women's health, sports medicine, eye care, and primary care. After being founded just over ten years ago, Five Rivers Health Centers now has 9 locations geared towards providing health services to low-income residents. The new facility is now accepting patients, and you can learn more at fiverivershealthcenters.org.    Last week former Congressman and Ambassador, Tony Hall, received the Dayton Peace Prize, which is awarded jointly by the Dayton Council on World Affairs and the Dayton Peace Prize Selection Committee. Hall was a US Congressman from 1979 to 2002, after which he served as the US Ambassador to the United Nations Agencies for Food and Agriculture. He also started the Hall Hunger Initiative here in Dayton. Past recipients of the award include President Bill Clinton, Ambassador Richard Holbrooke, and Archbishop Desmond Tutu.    Well if you're in the Oregon District looking for Heart Mercantile then you'll need to find them in their new location, which is on the other side of the street from their old one. They're now at 601 E. Fifth St. across from Trolley Stop in a space that's double the size of their old location. Also starting today, they are now open one hour later every day, with hours from 11:00am to 8:00pm now. Learn more at heartmercantile.com.   If you're in the market for sustainable, locally-grown produce, then you might want to check out Mission of Mary's CSA, or community-supported agriculture. Their CSA program runs from this month until November of this year, with pickups every Wednesday from 2:00-6:00pm. You can sign up to get vegetables weekly from them on their website at missionofmary.org.    And finally, before we get to the more fun events happening this weekend and beyond, there's also a Rally for Abortion Rights at Courthouse Square this Saturday, May 14th from 2:00-3:00pm. You can learn more about the event on the Dayton Women's Rights Alliance on Facebook or end40days on Instagram.    All right, and now for things to do in Dayton:   If you're looking for a drive-in movie experience but don't want to travel very far, you can go and see the Princess Bride tonight at Top of the Market Banquet Center, which is hosting a pop-up drive-in movie screening in conjunction with Liftoff Entertainment. The cost is $30-40 per vehicle and the lot opens at 7:30pm with the movie starting at 8:45pm. You can visit the show notes on my website for the link to purchase tickets, which is a long EventBrite link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/wheels-and-reels-princess-bride-tickets-321481538937   If you're more in the mood for music tonight, you can head over to Blind Bob's for a show that starts at 9:00pm. Performing tonight will be Jon Snodgrass, DL Burdon, Joe Anderl, and Josh Goldman. The cover is $10.    Pet lovers who enjoy walking or running with their animals are in luck this weekend as the Furry Skurry 5K event is happening Saturday, May 14th, from 8:00am-noon. General Admission is a $40 registration fee. After you're done running (or if you don't want to run at all) there will also be a beverage tent with bloody marys, mimosas, wine, and beer, as well as a pancake breakfast and more. This fundraising event is put on by the Humane Society of Greater Dayton, and you can find tickets at hsdayton.org/events.    Also happening on Saturday is the 2022 opening day for the Shiloh Farmers Market, which takes place at 5300 Philadelphia Dr from 9:00am to 2:00pm. In addition to the veggies you can purchase, the Smokin' Barrels Food Truck will be there as well.    Another thing you can do Saturday is participate in the Pride Rocks! suicide prevention program, where you can join in rock painting, enjoy a free meal, participate in educational programming about mental health, and listen to LGBTQ+ musicians. The event is free to attend, and goes from 11:00am to 2:00pm at the Levitt Pavilion. The event is put on by the NCCJ, or the National Conference for Community and Justice of Greater Dayton.    And there's more happening tomorrow, including the Dayton Beer Company's 10th anniversary celebration, which goes from noon to 11:00pm Saturday, May 14th. The event promises to have fun for the whole family, including the little ones, with live entertainment, games, and more. So cheers to 10 years to the Dayton Beer Company!   And if that wasn't enough, you can also visit the Liederkranz-Turner's Biergarten on Saturday from 5:00-10:00pm. Trivia is back, and there are now over 70 German beers you can try. Food is available, and there are games and activities for people of all ages.    If you'd like to see the Dayton Playhouse's production of “Hello Dolly,” the only remaining tickets the last I checked were for Saturday night at 8:00pm, so visit daytonplayhouse.com soon for info on how to get tickets.    And finally moving on to Sunday, May 15th, you can stop at the 2nd Street Market if you've been collecting pop tabs, which of course were invented here in Dayton, and participate in Tab-a-PULL-Ooza, which is a family-friendly event that benefits the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Dayton. There's a competition to see who has the most tabs, although to be honest I couldn't find what you'll win, but it all goes towards a good cause.    Also happening Sunday is a SUNDAYton Tea dance, where you can go to the Bar and Bistro and participate in a tea dance hosted by Dayton drag queens. This Sunday's show will feature Jessica Marie Jones, Jackie O, MAGESTIK, and Dana Sintell. The event takes place from 4:00-7:00pm and the cost ranges from free to $10 to attend.    Also happening Sunday evening at Salar is the Rosé All Day wine dinner, where for $89 you can get a choice of 5 wines to go with Chef Margot Blondet's patio favorites. Visit salarrestaurant.com for ticket information.    If you're in the mood for some comedy after that, you can head over to Wiley's for their Sunday Comics series, going from 7:15-9:00pm. The Sunday Comics are a mixture of local amateurs and nationally-touring acts who are working on material and perform short comedy sets.

Today's episode is the weekly News Roundup for May 6, 2022. In this episode I go over the results of the recent statewide and local elections, talk about what may happen to women's right to an abortion in Ohio if the Supreme Court does indeed overturn Roe v. Wade, cover a new restaurant/grocery store coming to downtown Dayton, and preview things happening next week and later this month. A complete transcript for this episode is available at discoverdaytonpodcast.com!   Transcript: Hello and welcome to the Discover Dayton podcast, the show that's all about the Gem City's past, present, and future. I'm Arch Grieve and I'm your host, and today's episode is the weekly news roundup for May 5th, 2022. There's a lot that happened last week, including local and statewide elections, an increase in the likelihood that Ohio will no longer permit abortions to take place, a new restaurant and grocery store coming to downtown Dayton, and lots of things to do next week and throughout this month. You won't want to miss this episode, so stay tuned.    Well, the first of what will likely be two Ohio primaries took place this past Tuesday, and former Dayton Mayor Nan Whaley won the Democratic primary race for Ohio Governor with 65% of the vote, while Mike Dewine won the Republican primary with 48%. The two face off now head to head in the general election later this year on November 8th, with Whaley already becoming the first woman of a major party in Ohio to earn the nomination for governor. In the Secretary of State Race, current Secretary Frank LaRose won the Republican primary, and he will face Democrat Chelsea Clark, who was unopposed. In the race for Ohio's next US Senator Ohio Congressman Tim Ryan won the Democratic primary with close to 70% of the vote, while author JD Vance won the Republican primary with a plurality of about 32%. Morgan Harper, who came on this show recently, received about 18% of the vote in the Democratic primary. Moving closer to home, Dayton blogger David Esrati won the Democratic primary by a plurality with about 31% of the electorate, defeating Baxter Stapleton, who also appeared on the show recently. Esrati will face off against Mike Turner, who ran unopposed in the primary race. Also locally the one candidate who appeared on this show and won was Angelina Jackson, who will now face Judge Robert Hanseman in the fall in the race to be Montgomery County's Common Pleas Court Judge. Jordan Wortham won the Republican primary race for Montgomery County Commissioner, beating Rennes Bowers by just .2%. Board of Elections workers noted that turnout was low, with just 21% of eligible voters actually going to the polls.    The City of Dayton is utilizing a new strategy to try to increase the amount of affordable housing in the city, which a local nonprofit estimated will need an additional 3,800 new rental units and 4,600 new units for sale by 2026. Recently, the city put together a roundtable for community stakeholders, which the city hopes will put forward recommendations on how to increase the supply of housing in the area while also preserving existing housing. The committee is expected to provide recommendations on things like how to preserve and expand its housing supply, where to put new housing, how to improve code enforcement, and how best the city can use its resources to help alleviate the problem. The process, which began in March, is expected to last between six to nine months.   Dayton Police are urging drivers to slow down in the wake of a deadly crash that killed four people in Dayton this past Sunday at North Gettysburg St. and James Avenue. The driver of the car is reported to have lost control and slammed into a phone pole. Police say that this is part of a spike in reckless driving accidents in Dayton compared to this time last year, which includes 14 fatal crashes this year so far, an increase of 75% from last year during the same time.    The City of Dayton has also been in the news recently for its new street parking app, which can be found at 1,300 parking spaces downtown already. The city claims that the app helps them manage parking more efficiently through what City Manager Shelley Dickstein calls a “single, centralized system.” The city also says that the app is more convenient for people visiting the downtown area, as they can now extend their parking sessions without having to return to the meter and get alerts when their time is about to expire. The Parking Pass system is available through your app store, although you can still pay with change or a credit card (in some locations) as well.    Marijuana advocates are upset at state lawmakers, who they have accused in a recent court filing of trying to circumvent the state statute process and keep their ballot measure off the ballot in November. The Coalition to Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol filed suit against the state in Franklin County recently, arguing that state officials are illegally trying to keep their marijuana legalization bill off the ballot because Republican party leaders are opposed to recreational marijuana's legalization. The ballot measure would allow Ohioans over the age of 21 to buy and possess up to 2.5 ounces of marijuana as well as be able to grown their own plants at home. The controversy is over whether or not the coalition got their ballot measure submitted and approved in time for it to be eligible.    Also happening at the state level, abortion rights advocates are concerned about the recent Supreme Court decision that's been leaked recently at the federal level because Ohio legislators have two bills that have been called “trigger bans,” which will go into effect in Ohio in the event that the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, which seems all but certain to do later this year after a draft opinion written by Justice Alito was leaked recently. The bills are Ohio Senate Bill 123 and Ohio House Bill 598. Here in Dayton a rally for reproductive rights was held on Tuesday, with some participants dressed as characters from the Handmaid's Tale, the Hulu series about a dystopian future where authoritarian religious conservatives take over the American government.     The popular downtown Dayton coffee shop, Third Perk, will be opening a restaurant in West Dayton that will feature southern-style cooking. The new location would have carry-out service, and owner Juanita Darden is applying to receive $50,000 from the city's West Dayton Development Trust Fund to get the project started, in addition to the $200,000 that Third Perk will be investing. The restaurant would open on the site of an old restaurant at 3907 W. Third St.    Another restaurant that is opening even sooner and coming to downtown Dayton is Tony and Pete's Grocery and Cold Cuts, which is expected to open later this month in Dayton's Fire Blocks District. The store will have a small curated grocery section, which will include things like milk and eggs and beer and wine. There will also be a sandwich counter where people can order cold and hot sandwiches, salads, and sides.    If you're downtown this weekend on Saturday or Sunday in the UD area just know that restaurants and other places may be busy as UD holds its graduation services over the course of the two days. They have a new record number of undergraduates earning degrees at 1,655, and over 2,000 students will be awarded degrees in total.    A local filmmaker, Collin Brazie, is going to be premiering his new movie “Foxhole,” which is told from the perspective of five soldiers from three different wars, including the American Civil War, World War I, and the Iraq War. Brazie earned his MFA in film production and cinematography and specializes in narrative, documentary, and branded content. The premier will take place tomorrow, Saturday, May 7, at The Neon at 4:00pm. Ticket prices are $10.50 and can be purchased at the box office or neonmovies.com.   And now, here are some things to do next week and over the course of the remainder of this month:   Mariah Ivey, Thomas Ellison, and Siri Imani will be performing tonight, Friday May 6th, at the PNC Arts Annex. They are the organizers of the program Broken English: Dayton, and are partnering with visual artists Zuri Ali and Jamaal Durr for the pre-show, which will feature cocktails and artwork by the two artists. The cost to attend is $25 to $35 and tickets can be purchased at daytonlive.org.   If you're looking for an event for the whole family tonight, check out the Passport to MetroParks program going on tonight from 6:00 to 9:00pm at RiverScape MetroPark on Monument Ave. The event features live music, food trucks, family activities, and more.

This week, more than 700 bicycling advocates converged in Washington -- despite a snowstorm that closed down the federal government on Monday and thousands of cancelled flights -- to learn from each other and compare notes from the past year in bicycling advocacy. Tuesday, as the summit wound down and participants started gearing up for Wednesday's Lobby Day on Capitol Hill, hosts Jeff and Tanya were joined by Doug Gordon of Brooklyn Spoke, Suepinda Keith of Triangle Bikeworks in Chapel Hill, and Jonathan Maus of Bike Portland for this very special Bike Summit episode of the podcast. The Women's Forum is in its third year. The League's Equity Advisory Council came into being just before last year's summit. These voices, historically not at the center of the national conversation about bicycling, are coming to the fore. The five of us talk in this, our lucky 13th episode, about how effectively the movement is transitioning to a more inclusive approach, and we share some of the highlights of the summit, including some truly incredible work happening everywhere from Memphis to LA to Afghanistan. Tell us in the comments about your personal highlights from the Summit. Subscribe to this podcast’s RSS feed or subscribe to the podcast on iTunes.

USA - So I got called from the StreetFilms folks to help with Friday's National Bike to Work Day video. They wanted video from cities all over the country. Only problem was, Portland was not celebrating National Bike to Work day. Don't know why. But hey, every day is bike to work day in Portland. So I thought I'd strap and electronic gong to the back of the Disco Trike and ride in to see if I could find any bike commuters who liked to bang gongs and eat donuts. My contribution to the video above is at the end after SF, Austin, and NYC represent. I feel I did my part in keeping Portland weird. Also, here is the 10-minute rough-cut version from my Friday morning adventure. More info from StreetFilms The League of American Bicyclists started Bike-to-Work Day in 1956 as a part of National Bike-to-Work Week, which in some cities has turned into Bike Month. Bike-to-Work Day is an annual event that promotes and celebrates the bicycle as a viable mode of transportation. On Bike-to-Work Day, national, regional, and local bicycle advocacy groups often organize bicycle-related events. Today’s Streetfilm features Bike-to-Work Day in Austin, San Francisco, New York City and Portland, Oregon. If you haven’t already, check out the streetsblog open thread from Friday. And, contact us if you would like to participate in next year’s NBTWD film! This video was produced by Elizabeth Press for StreetFilms with help from John Hamilton -SF Dan Kaufman (me) - PDX Brent Perdue - Austin Carly Clark Ali Qadeer Elleinad
