Calling all cyclists, beach cruisers and bike enthusiasts. The city of Santa Monica wants to know what role you think bicycles have in the future of Santa Monica. This Saturday is a chance for Santa Monicans to get together and discuss future possibilities and improvements for bike transit in the city.
The former executive director of the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition will attend to share insight from San Francisco’s recent emphasis on bike transit. There will be a hands-on demonstration of how to take a bike on the Big Blue Bus. Topics to be discussed include bicycle safety, road rules, bike racks and amenities, updates on the Exposition bicycle path, and tips on integrating biking and transit.
