Here's a shot of the new parking meter bike racks in Hamden. Kudos to the city and parking authority for moving forward on this!

Last night on a tour of Harbor East as part of 1000 Friends Gala, the developers got a well deserved earfull about the lack of bike parking over there. Bikes were locked to everything, especially outside the gym, all street signs full and people had bikes chained to the furniture in the lobby. Not a bike rack in sight except at Whole Foods, which was full. Bike racks and street furniture are &quot;on the way&quot; just like on St. Paul street.

Like most people I live a hectic life and who has the time for much exercise? Thanks to xtracycle now I do. By using my bike for daily activities I can get things done and get an hour plus work out in 15 minutes extra of my time, not a bad deal and beats taking the extra time going to the gym. In case you are still having trouble being motivated; the National Center of Disease Control says that inactivity is the #2 killer in the United States just behind smoking. ( http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/bb_nutrition/ ) Get out there and start living life! I can carry home a full shopping cart of groceries, car pool two kids or just get lost in the great outdoors camping for a week. Well I got go, another outing this weekend.
