I got that going for me, which is nice

September 15th, 2008 by Sveden

Saw this over on Boing Boing dot net.

The likelihood that an individual cyclist will be struck by a motorist falls with increasing rate of bicycling in a community.

Also from Boing Boing a 1946 Disney PSA on menustration, which has little to do with biking except for this frame starting at 7:01.

Tell the Park Board you want Cyclocross in MPLS

August 20th, 2008 by Sveden

This is tonight, Wednesday August 20th.

For the past three years The Hub Bike Co-op has sponsered a highly attended cyclocross race at Powderhorn Park in south Minneapolis. This year we are having trouble securing a permit for the race due to claimed damage to the park. We need folks to attend this Wednesday’s Park Board meeting to show support for keeping cyclocross racing in Minneapolis parks and specifically at Powderhorn Park. Besides having some supports at the meeting we need a people who are willing to stand up and speak for 2-3 minutes about why it is important to keep the cyclocross race at Powderhorn. If you live in the park vicinity and or feel strongly about this please contact me about signing up to speak(Joel Cahalan 612-203-5280(cell), 612-729-0437(shop)). I will have some talking points put together and emailed out before the meeting. To speak you must be signed up by 3pm the day of the meeting. The meeting starts at 5pm with time for us to speak at 5:30. It is located at:

MPRB Administrative Offices, Board Room Suite 255
Address: 2117 West River Road
