The deadline to receive your 'free' Dead Dog t-shirt when you register is approaching, May 27th at midnight! Shirts will be available for $20 at the race while supply lasts. This 25th Anniversary Edition shirt is one of the best ever and, for those of you who collect them, that's saying an awful lot!! Don't miss out!
I attended the clinic and believe me, this group of ladies was not the only group assembling at the park for some sort of organized instruction. I witnessed at least three other groups - two consisting of adult participants "holding court". I cannot speak to the issue of permits so if Amy and the others were unknowingly in violation then this should be corrected going forward. I still must ask the question- "Why is it people around here always have to complain about something?"
Definitely give OSMP appreciation for this, but I know BMA did at least one fund raiser for this as well so they should get some credit on paying for it as well.
Its progress anyway you see it, and I'm glad to see them being installed.
Ebikes are illegal on Boulder's multi-use paths, in public bike racks, and even parked on sidewalks! Only low-powered ones are allowed in bike lanes. We have a petition to
Boulder City Council to fix that: http://petitions.moveon.org/sign/legalize-ebikes-on-boulder We made a presentation to council on May 21 which was VERY well received. Councilman Ken Wilson said it was one of the best presentations he'd seen in his 6 years. Ebikes "level the playing field" for hills, wind, cargo, distance and age, injury or sedentariness.
There is no size limit that makes a permit applicable. Lee McCormack from LeeLikesBikes.com does small teaching sessions (6 - 8 people typically) and has to get permits from the city for those classes, I would assume this class would fall under the same category since there is a fee charged.

Why is it that some people take any comment as a complaint?

How about some thanks for city OSMP who built, paid for and will install these?

That is a great idea. Props to who worked for something better and found money.
Great photos, Dejan! Valmont has such great scenery. Can't wait to get myself out there for a try.
