As 2020 comes to a close so much great work has been done by all our members but we wanted to recognize 3 @DenBicycleLobby members that have done some great stuff for biking and safe streets:

@AKenreich @ddchen @NoSquish

A thread...
Let’s start with @AKenreich Who got the Golden Spoke award tonight. This is a award to recognize someone that has helped bicycle advocacy for all ages.
@AKenreich has done so much work. She championed issues for biking on a state and local level. She has used her amazing art talents to remember Alexis Bounds, and push for open and shared streets. And she has always pushed to make it safe to get more kids on bikes.

Memorial ride gathering for Alexis Bounds #BikeDEN
Husband of Alexis Bounds, Teddy Bounds, speaking tonight “I want you know that what you are doing tonight is transforming the space. It’s given our two sons such a positive way to engage with the space.”
“For those of you that knew Alexis personally, she was one of the warmest kindest people you would meet. If there was another family in our shoes, she would have been out here tonight.”

Here is the current Colorado State Rep. for Castle Rock attending this Mother’s Day Brunch in Castle Rock. This is a great opportunity to donate a few bucks to his opponent @KatieforCOHD45 secure.actblue.com/donate/katiefo… via @abbeywinter1 Image
#BikeDEN as @AndreaDeFrates rightly pointed out... this is also the guy that is opposed to state dollars for building bike lanes because they are for pogo sticks. https://t.co/kz49kEuqsp
Sorry I copied a broken link. Here is the actual link for her donation page secure.actblue.com/donate/katiefo…

#BikeDEN in the last 2 days I’ve heard of 3 bikes stolen from friends on here. If you don’t have your bike serial number written down, take 1 min to take a photo of it. It’s super easy. And register your bike here with @DenverPolice secure.coplogic.com/dors/en/filing…
We actually got a stolen bike back last year because we reported the serial number to DPD and it was flagged when someone tried to sell it to a pawn shop for... checks notes... $10!!!! Having the serial number is your best chance of getting the bike back.
And better yet, get a really good lock from places like @SloHiCoffeeBike or @bikeshopgirlcom so you don’t have to worry about it getting stolen in the first place.

A thread on the #BikeDEN road conditions in NW Denver 4 days post snow storm and how Denver might consider taking steps to truly be a multimodal city year round. Here is what one of the main bike lanes looks like, 29th Ave: Picture of a wet road with ...
Here is the West 23rd Ave bike lane. The city’s current policy is that plows will attempt to plow these when possible, the reality is that they often don’t get plowed at all even days after the storm and sometimes weeks in the cold winter months when it turns to hard pack ice: A snow covered bike lane wi...
Currently there are no provisions in place to plow any of the neighborhood bikeways like this one on W 35th Ave. Bike lane sign for the D4 b...

Exhibit #1 on why 23rd Ave needs a protected bike lane. Car going uphill passes me on bike not seeing oncoming traffic over top of hill. Opposition to removing parking will be fierce. Please attend Public Meeting to support this PBL: 12/5 530-730 at Riverside Church #BikeDEN
More details on the options on the table in play here from the May meeting: denvergov.org/content/dam/de…
And here is quick refresher on what #BikeDEN thought about the proposed designs for 23rd Ave: I’m hoping for the option that has protected lanes on both sides of the road. The two way lane with downhill traffic going so fast seems a little hairy to me. twitter.com/i/moments/1134…
