Kansas City Bicycle Log

Posts, email, and ideas related to bicycling and bicycle advocacy.



I post these mostly for my own convenience in being able to keep them archived and searchable, but if you get some use of them, more power to you!

Among other interesting items here is a fairly complete record of my involvement with the grassroots effort in support of the BikeKC initiative in the Summer of 2002.

You can find everything from press releases to letters to the city council to exhortations to other bicyclists to write letters to the editor. See what worked well and what caused us problems in the effort to pass BikeKC.

From my point of view, this was almost a picture-perfect grass-roots movement. The result was that BikeKC was passed on August 15th, 2002.

Now we have to work to make sure the plan becomes reality!

Most of that is in the 8/25/2002-8/31/2002 archive.

Hi all,

I came up with a flyer about BikeKC, urging people to support it.

You can see the online version of the page at

http://griffon.mwsc.edu/~bhugh/bikekcsummary.html

You can see and download an (improved) printable version of the flyer at

http://griffon.mwsc.edu/~bhugh/bikekcsummary.pdf

The flyer prints out on a single sheet (both sides). The idea is that you can just print out copies and give them to people, put them in the local bike shop, etc.

Also, the flyer has the City Council Email Addresses (in case yours were mangled by Topica when I sent them earlier).

If you don't like the particular way I have done the flyer, you are more than welcome to borrow any bits or pieces of it and use it any way you want.
