Neo Jang is a resident of College Station, Texas. For the past few years, he has exclusively used a cargo bicycle to transport his children around town instead of a car. In this episode of the Think Brazos Podcast, Neo discusses his evolution from a car guy to a bike dad. He also describes how bicycling has helped him connect with others in College Station along the way.
Neo serves as a volunteer on the Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Greenways Advisory Board. This sub committee works to improve those aspects of quality of life for residents in College Station, Texas. Neo is a staff member of Texas A&M University, and even returned his parking pass after owning it for about a month.
