Mailbag

Aden-Francis forwarded me this petition to get Google to add a bike route function to their mapping tool. I just went in to Google maps to plot out a couple of riding routes for folks visiting for the League of American Bicyclists' Bike Summit next week, and, well, i'm convinced. Please join me in signing the petition.

In the meantime, here's a link to DDOT's bike map.

Jim Sebastian at DDOT, who oversees bicycle programs, wrote that the Union Station Bikestation project is back underway, after funding was secured to cover the higher-than-anticipated bid prices. Look how cool this place will look when completed...

And the SmartBike DC bike sharing program is now targeted to start in April.
