The trail begins 10 feet in the air, atop a 1960s-era metal playground slide, where riders maneuver their BMX bikes onto the downward chute. From there: gravity. If this seems like a devilish way to start a bike ride, well, its aficionados won’t argue. Then again, they didn’t spend the last six weeks digging out decades of refuse here in Brush Park for a serene and quiet amble.
Love this!

The Idaho stop: cyclists treating stop signs as yield signs
“…as more people bike, cycling has a greater impact on everyone else on the road, and we need that impact to be perceived in a positive way. Higher rates of bicycling can reduce congestion and pollution, lower health care costs for everybody, encourage human interaction, benefit local businesses,…
The impact of all this unrealistic forecasting is that states are going into debt to lay asphalt no one wants to drive on. Toll roads, which are increasingly popular with states because they provide a revenue source to pay private investors back, are falling far short of projected use all over the country.

An 83-year-old man was struck and killed by a car as he rode a bicycle on the Northwest Side.
“The driver of the Malibu was cited for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident, police said.”
I can’t be the only one that thinks this citation doesn’t come close to fitting the crime. When are we going to get serious about bicycle safety?
Musings on Detroit, Chicago, Street Art, Electronic Music, Urban Planning, and pretty much anything else that may interest me.
