3rd Annual Boston Bikes Update
with Nicole Freedman, Director of Boston Bikes, City of Boston
Thursday, January 27, 6:30-8:30 pm (doors open at 6)
@ Rabb Lecture Hall, 700 Boylston St, Boston Public Library, Copley
Hosted by LivableStreets Alliance
Free and open to the public
Mayor Tom Menino has explained his dream of a city that is “safe and inviting” for bicyclists. With over a dozen miles of lanes and cycle tracks added in 2010, as well as new bike racks and a great deal of design in review, is Boston becoming a more bike friendly city?
For the third year in a row, LivableStreets Alliance will host the annual Boston Bikes Report event. Nicole Freedman, Director of the Boston Bikes Program, will present her third report on past achievements, challenges, and future goals of the Mayor’s effort to create a “world class bicycling city.” Ms. Freedman will discuss plans for the city’s bike sharing program, bike lanes and off-road networks, parking facilities, youth programs, festivals, and more. A question and answer period will follow the presentation.

What will be your next stop?
It’s c-c-c-cold in Boston today – possibly one of the coldest days we’ll see in 2011. So what better time to revisit some of our warmer touring days from last year?
Take a look at the City View Tour we did with the folks from Next Stop TV. Follow along with our tour guides Greg, Jesse and Glen as they ride through a much warmer Boston:
If you’re already looking forward to warmer temperatures for 2011, check out our Early Bird Special. Give us a call to get 20% off your reservation for the 2011 season! Here’s to some warm sunny days soon.
Some wintry AdvenTours
Boston never fails to leave us guessing. This time yesterday we had total whiteout conditions, and we’re still here snow/shine to keep you rolling. It looked like it might never stop snowing:
Not exactly the most bike friendly weather
But now the roads are mostly cleared and it’s a sunny bluebird day. Go figure. So instead of just dealing with Boston’s wacky weather all throughout the holiday break, Chief Wheel Officer Andrew headed down to the Big Apple to visit some of our partners.
Chrome, who we love, now has a shop in NYC in addition to their flagship spot out in San Fransisco. Sam was running the show while Andrew was there, and what an incredibly bike-friendly show it was!
An indoor bike rack for those super classy Manhattanites
While we Bostonians may still have some little brother jealousy towards NYC, the Chrome store also demonstrates that there’s a pretty great bike scene up here too. Why yes, that is a Geekhouse hanging right there in the front entrance of the shop!
Boston well represented with a handmade Geekhouse
Thanks for the warm welcome Sam, Andrew’s off to visit your homeland next. Stay tuned for AdvenTours updates from San Fransisco!
