Notes from the Road: Ride that Bike!
Did you know that 1/3 of all Coloradans can't or won't drive a vehicle? This is 1.5 million people that need to use public transportation, walk, or bicycle to reach their destination.
I had a great visit with Dan Grunig, Executive Director of Bicycle Colorado last week. Click on this link to hear a short interview with Dan. Bicycle Colorado is a longtime Community Shares member agency. Their mission is to encourage and promote bicycling, increase safety, improve conditions, and provide a voice for cyclists in Colorado.
When you think about it, using a bicycle reduces wear and tear on our roads, increases the health of the population, reduces air pollution, and decreases our energy dependence just to name a few benefits.
One way you can support Bicycle Colorado is to buy a "Share the Road" license plate when you license your car. Give Dan a call at 303-417-1544 if there is something you can do to help.
