After a two-week absence, your weekend reading is back!
From BikeTexas:
It’s Sales Tax Holiday weekend! Get a BikeTexas jersey or an I Bike TX t-shirt this weekend, and save a little cash you can put towards some new bike lights (which, alas, are not tax-free).
The time is now! BikeTexas’ Annual Membership Drive and Bicycle Giveaway is underway right now, and you don’t want to miss out! If you’re a monthly sustaining member, you’re already entered to win a new bike. Join BikeTexas or renew your annual membership this month to be entered to win!
As a special bonus, if you join, renew, or donate on any Friday in August, you’ll get a free gift! Use the hashtag #FundraisingFriday on all your favorite social media sites to tell people why you support bicycle advocacy.
From around Texas:
Fort Worth’s bicycle network is growing, but the gaps are still problematic
Denton has some shiny new repair stations around town
Brian Adam Mahy of Austin has been found guilty of killing bicyclist Robert “Chops” Ramirez in 2012.
From elsewhere:
One Chicago suburb’s plans to address walkability for Baby Boomers
Investments in protected bike infrastructure are paying dividends across Canada
Riding to work has doubled in London in the past 10 years

Have a great weekend!
