Within the last month there have been multiple issues with coyotes along an east section of the Boulder Creek path. On any typical roadway coyote issues resolve themselves as the cars and trucks will eliminate the issue with in seconds of contact but new transportation arteries like the Boulder Creek path does not have that self correcting characteristic, users of these pathways are vulnerable to these wildlife encroachments. Added to these issues many of our multi use paths are located in or nearby protected open space. Continued issues like these will make many bike commuters who are on the fence about attempting to use this pathway as a means to commute will easily make the choice to drive instead.

3 new stations have been added. Where are these new locations?

• Boulder Beer (2880 Wilderness Place)
• 29th St. Mall (1737 29th St., Near Panera)
• Iris and Broadway (1271 Broadway)

In its second winter of bike-sharing, Boulder B-cycle has decided to stay open for its users all winter. This is in contrast to last year's first winter in which they closed from mid-December through mid-March.

We’ve posted stories about fatbikes in the past, but it’s different this winter. Different brands and builds of fatbikes have now filled bike shops across the country. Shops that had denied their popularity in the past have jumped on board, giving cyclists more opportunities to kick the 3.7+ inch tires. Stop in any shop this winter and you’ll feel the fatbike buzz.

While I’m certain many of you have seen fatbikes either at your local shop, on the trail, or through social media, there is a percentage of you that are saying to yourself, “fat tires, fat…what?” I’m also certain that 90% of you reading this haven’t actually ridden one, let along gotten one out on the trail, beach, or in the snow. For that reason, let’s step back and learn a little about these monster truck bikes first.

What is a “fatbike” and why are they so damn fun?

The origins of the fatbike are fairly recent. Even the name, “fatbike,” has been a recent development. Check out our story from last year discussing some of the history, Colorado connections, and other basic fatbike information: http://303cycling.com/fat-snow-bike.
