Ep. 1100: Ben Grannis - Biking ~6,000 Miles Around the US Revisited

Ben Grannis is a 26-year-old cyclist from Ridgefield, Connecticut, who embarked on a significant bike ride across America to raise awareness about distracted driving. A 2017 graduate of Kenyon College, Grannis was inspired by his father’s 1977 cross-country bike trip and his own experiences working as a trip leader for Overland Summers, an organization that runs teen adventure trips. Motivated by the tragic death of Merritt Levitan, an 18-year-old killed by a distracted driver during a bike tour, Grannis launched the Eyes Up Ride to support Textless Live More, an organization focused on combating distracted driving and promoting digital wellness.
