I've heard of other night rides in other places too. <br /><br />What to do, where to go, and how long to ride can be whatever Salem wants.Laurie Doughertyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11824401850721009298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5666195730630249633.post-48874705761916933102013-07-27T16:38:03.264-07:002013-07-27T16:38:03.264-07:00Those are all great ideas.

I suppose the lackluster approach is to ensure failure (yes, I have become that cynical!). The City can say "we tried an no one showed!" I'll be there with bikes and kids!Jeff McNameehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05724051167097867531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5666195730630249633.post-47666174477606009892013-07-25T15:10:31.747-07:002013-07-25T15:10:31.747-07:00I like the idea of a cycle track through Downtown ...I like the idea of a cycle track through Downtown and a bike show. But not just vintage bicycles. A show with commuters, cargo bikes, and all dimensions of bicycles would be a better idea. Show people what an everyday bicycle can do!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
