Bike Ottawa has done quite a lot of work on the need to make bike parking accessible for all kinds of bikes. Bike theft is one of the main reasons people don’t bike, so good racks that can accommodate cargo bikes, bikes with front baskets, bikes with wide tires, trikes, etc. are essential.
Board members Dave and Florence went to the Winter Cycling Congress earlier this year, hosted in Edmonton. Excited as we are about riding through the summer, we’re also thinking hard about what they learned.
Bike Ottawa has actively provided feedback on the City’s Transportation Master Plan (TMP) in various phases, and in both broad and narrow strokes.
This month we’re spreading Bike Love and featuring stories from local and not-so-local people about their own Bike Love. We are very happy to have Jillian Banfield, the Halifax Bike Mayor for our first guest post. Thank you Jillian for sharing your story with us.
