The Urban Trails Master Plan Needs Your Support! District 1 City Council Forums @ YBP Bike Austin's "I Bike I Walk I Vote" Pledge Harvest Moon Ride This Tonight! Harvest Moon Ride Sun, Sept 7 @ 2am City Council on Urban Trails Master Plan Thur, Sept 25th 700 Lavaca St
| The Urban Trails Master Plan Needs Your Support! That trail from Austin out to (nearly) Manor is awesome, right? And the boardwalk? Sure beats the sidewalk on Riverside! Let the City know that you support Austin's investment in bike infrastructure and that you want to see it continue and grow. How? By emailing city council or going to the Commissioner Courthouse at 700 Lavaca St on Thursday Sept. 25th. If you can't make it on the 25th, you can still make your way down to City Hall or the Commissioner Courthouse and go to the agenda kiosk, find the Urban Trails Master Plan on the agenda, and register your support. We saw you rally around the vote on handheld devices, now lets rally around building a better, more bikeable Austin! District 1 City Council Forums @ YBP It's a busy month for transportation issues and we'll be talking about them with as many District One City Council candidates we can round-up. (There's 9 of 'em.) The event is currently in the planning stages, but keep an eye on our Facebook page for details. We're aiming for the last couple days of the month. Bike Austin's "I Bike I Walk I Vote" Pledge While we're on the topic of community involvement and the like, why don't you head on over to Bike Austin and sign up for their "I Bike I Walk I Vote" pledge? They'll give you a handy dandy text reminder to vote if you'd like and you can offer your services to help get out the vote. Harvest Moon Ride Tonight! This is the ride of the year. It starts at 2am on Sunday (so very late Saturday, essentially) from the Pfluger Pedestrian Bridge and heads out for the annual tour de Randall's parking lots. |
