For those of you who have not seen the new bike lane going SE on University just after the Roland Ave split, it is way cool. They removed a travel lane to install a bike lane. This concept is very important to implementing our bike master plan well; obtaining road width where it is not absolutely needed for motorized travel. If you would like to see more road designs that accommodate all road users well, send a thank you note to Frank Murphy frank.murphy@baltimorecity.gov .
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.
