PUBLIC INPUT Greece Canal Park Master Plan Update

Written by Jonathan Brown

Opportunity for mountain biking on the west side of Monroe County.

Since the County is asking for public comments on the “improvements” to this park, anyone who would like to see shared-use trails developed for mountain biking should get involved. This is a similar situation to the Ellison Master Plan, in that we as interested citizens were able to get mountain biking approved for Tryon and Bay Park West as part of the project. I see no reason why Greece Canal Park shouldn’t get the same evaluation. It will require interest and dedication by those who wish to fight for their rights to access to the park for this legitimate activity.

Brown pedals for you - Bike for UPS

Written by Jonathan Brown

Brown pedals for you

This holiday season, 45 UPS routes in northern CA are being covered by bike. It’s not a green initiative, but a financial one. The move is expected to save UPS up to $50K in fuel and the cost of renting about 25 Budget trucks usually needed to handle the gift ordering rush. The bike-trailer set plus helmet and reflective vest runs about $700 each. You get to ride around all day AND get paid $10 per hour for it. This guy says he’s become a local celebrity. People run out of their houses to take pictures with him. (source: Mercury News, 12/10 )
