Bicycle Austin forum

This forum’s roots date back to the very first bike email list in Austin, starting in 1994, and it played a part in the getting the segregated bike lanes you see all over town.  Be a part of history and make a post!

I would say that just measuring fuel efficiency without looking at everything else the "world of cars" has wrought seems like a poor way to measure.

Michael,

Keeping up with a blog can be difficult, I agree. My model for AustinBikeBlog.com is basically the same as BikePortland.com , if you have been there. I'm not sure if that answers your questions, but I think the vision is similar to what you were trying to achieve.

I am open to, well in fact, I WANT more contributors, absolutely (I'm open to just about any of us involved in the cycling scene here writing on our blog if they wanna!), and I want to be able to cover city meetings, all kinds of things related to advocacy and bike culture in town.
