Thanks so much for joining me today.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Gabe Klein:</strong> [00:01:20] Thanks for having me, Eve.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Eve:</strong> [00:01:22] So, you've done so much, I really don't know where to begin. Zipcar. Bike sharing. Transportation commissioner. A book called 'Startup City.'

I'm wondering how you got there and why transportation issues matter so much to you.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Gabe:</strong> [00:01:50] Yeah.
