What's at stake in attacks on Sadik-Khan by Matt Seaton

Submitted by mg on Wed, 03/09/2011 - 9:10pm

Excellent piece by CRCA member Matt Seaton in The Guardian (London)

Hopefully next Monday's meeting with Capt. Wishnia won't turn into an attack on DOT.
Capt. Wishnia can implement policies that can accomplish everything that flashing lights can
accomplish without the expense of overhauling the park traffic light system.

Weather.com shows a 70% chance of rain at 6am so I'm going to spin class instead of riding. I hope to see you next Tuesday. Regards, Linda

Henry Hudson Bridge--cycling status

Submitted by JFinder on Wed, 03/09/2011 - 6:37pm

Is this 2010 post still valid?

http://www.streetsblog.org/2010/08/05/henry-hudson-bridge-walkway-re-ope...

In other words, is the HH Bridge still effectively inaccessible at the Inwood Hill Park end (due to rough cycling conditions and stairs), and is riding still prohibited by signs on the bridge walkway?

Thanks.

Major Coverage of CP Crime Spike

Submitted by mg on Wed, 03/09/2011 - 12:30am

Did anyone hire a pr agent? Major coverage today in the NY Post and on NY1 about spike in crime in CP and other parks.
This is very effective argument to get cops back to serious work and stop harassing cyclists.

Perhaps comparing ourselves to the off-leash dog walking folks has been bad for the dog walkers...
