Looking for some weekend reading? Look no further than these links we thought were worth sharing this week:
From BikeTexas:
Volunteer for VIVA! Streets on September 13! (We also have volunteer opportunities coming up in San Antonio and Dallas, so stay tuned… or go ahead and fill out our volunteer form so we know you’re interested. We’ll be in touch!)
Five new Texas businesses have been designated as bike friendly by the League. That’s 25 all together now!
VIVA! Streets is nine days away! Bring the family to play in the street. Not sure how to get there? See the VIVA! Streets transportation guide here.
From around Texas:
The City of Kyle passed a hands free ordinance this week.
From elsewhere:
Can you ride a bike in the suburbs, or is it just too impratical?
City of L.A. officials don’t seem to get what bike lanes are for.
More thoughts about the Federal Highway Administration’s clarifying what funds are for.
Riding a bike may form stronger habits than driving.
And another article about how roads are funded.
Meanwhile in NYC, one precinct has their priorities badly out of order.
And finally– sometimes you manage to put so many good articles out in one week, the best suggestion is to read them all. So take a look at all of People for Bikes’ blog posts this week.
Have a great weekend!
