Bike Buddy – Vote early & Vote often!

Posted: February 19th, 2010 | Author: newamsterdamize | Filed under: BikingRules, livable streets, projects | No Comments »

Transportation Alternatives needs you and your friends to vote for BikeBuddy. This new program is a kin to a biking version of Meetup.com. Imagine networking with fellow commuters who use the same bike paths, or discovering someone else’s shortcut across town OR, better yet, finding fellow foodies for a taco run!

All you need is a BikeBuddy! Every day, until Feb 28, TA needs your vote; VOTE EARLY, VOTE OFTEN!

Sidenote – @noneck, one of the curators of this site, has been hired by TA to help organize their social media.

bamboo bicycle trailer by freedom carry

in the spirit of new world explorers, (and looming winter months) i’m already starting to think about winter projects. besides looking for peeps who would be up for building, maintaining and fixing cargo bikes. i’m thinking of wrangling up a bunch of folks who want to build their own bike trailer.

who’s up for mayhem?
