August Rambles

Wow, This blog has not been updated for while. But that does not mean that all is quiet in commuter bicycling. I've been riding regularly but not to my office which was relocated to Topsfield. I could do it, but it is about 30 miles up Route 133 and there are no showers to be found in the little office park where I am now located. Anyways, interest in biking has escalated along with the price of gasoline. Once you get involved in biking, it starts to seem as if biking would ease everything: banish the obesity epidemic with biking, cut your carbon footprint, save money, make the town a nice place to travel instead of getting stuck in traffic on Main Street. It really doesn't work that way. Let me know is you are new or renewed in your bike efforts.

A Peddling Wish

Thanks for coming to this blog. Here's what I'd like to accomplish. The long term goal is to be part of creating a safe, comprehensive bicycle plan for Andover. I'd like to think that at some point (I'll call it the 25-year bike plan), the town will have a series of linked paths and safe roadways which the residents can use for recreation, shopping, business and commuting. Students will learn the rules of safe biking early on, drivers will share the roads willingly and our town will be viewed as a model for other community biking efforts. Care to join in for the ride?
