Here’s a little description of Tom’s ride which gives you a 58 mile ride with the greatest elevation gain possible in that distance. You wanted to get in shape, didn’t you?

Please follow the link to get the history behind these signs, and their celebration of mutual courtesy in the interest of safety for all, regardless of our modes of transportation:
The Story Behind Bainbridge Shares the Road

We appreciate all the collaboration and work which made these signs possible, most notably including support by the Mayor, Council, and COBI staff!

In October of last year, ferns were salvaged from the Chaffey Project on Springridge, and replanted in the cut on New Brooklyn between the bus barn and Sportsman Road. This was a wonderful collaboration of a number of groups.

Now we are about to follow through with planting a variety on native plants as part of this year’s workplan for the Non-Motorized Transportation Advisory Committee, collaborating with these same groups.

I took this photo at the intersection of Finch & Wyatt. Part of the reason I chose it is that the cyclist is taking care to look for cars before making the turn.

I also like the way the cyclist is silhouetted so the action is easy to grasp.

Sandy Fischer, Project Manager for Winslow Tomorrow, asked me for photos to be used at the 11-13 7: p.m. at City Council Chambers Community meeting to comment on and review the in-progress Master Plan for Waterfront Park.

Having spent the time pulling a collection of images together, it seemed like I might go ahead and create a website w/ slideshows and maps.

I included a page with the enlarged map for Winslow & Eagele Harbor from our map (which is now at the printer), the City of Bainbridge Island Guide to Walking, Cycling, and Paddling.

So, here’s a link to the website I created:
Waterfront Trail to Winslow Waterfront Park.
