We’re building a photo archive of bicycles, bicycling, and bicycle-related infrastructure in San Diego, and you can help!
Remember to pack a camera on your next bike ride or walkabout and take photos of everything bicycle-related. We’re looking for photos of people riding bikes, parked bikes, kids on bikes, bike lanes, road signs, bikes at local [...]

In March 2009 I was cited for violating CVC 21202(a). The Police Officer understood that code as mandating that bicycles always operate as far to the right as possible. You can read the Court Transcripts, My Appellant’s [...]

Our friends up in San Diego’s north county’s coastal region recently wrote about the Merriam Mountain project - a new housing development that is redefining what “smart growth” means.
The developers have rights to build 345 houses. They do not own the development rights to build 2,700 houses.
The developer, Stonegate Development Company, requested an upzone which [...]

Once again, I’m late in getting this post up. This fall has been a busy one, and with the holidays approaching, promises to be busier still. The blogs have been pretty quiet, too, but just in case you have a spare moment, here’s the best of what our local bloggers have been writing.
Farewell to My [...]

Special Double Edition! Yes, I missed last week, so it’s a double-dose of bike bloggerin’ this week. Get out your reading glasses, Martha:
Bike by the Sea got a new bike, considered the future of “cycle chic” and announced the first Red Carpet Ride (and made the news). Busy lady!
Brown Girl in the Lane saw an [...]

Uh, is it too soon to claim that the time change threw me off and that’s why I’m late getting this week’s roundup posted? Or am I early? You decide.
Anyhoo, this week:
Farewell to My Car learned a few things, and looked like a total dork.
Power 2 Pedal must be a San Diego or SoCal native, [...]

Well, I hope you appreciate this, because it’s getting harder and harder to keep up with all the bike bloggerin’ goin’ on in this fair city of ours. More people are riding, more people are writing, and it’s all I can do to just keep all the new blogs straight. Just another valuable service provided [...]

A post today on Streetsblog New York raises the question of whether electric bicycles should be allowed in New York City. They are currently prohibited from using roadways under New York state law, which has apparently led to people riding (driving?) them on sidewalks.
Neither California nor the City of San Diego places any legal restrictions [...]

Our weekly roundup of the best of the week’s local bike blogging:
Bic Control gave more thought to distracted drivers than most distracted drivers devote to their driving. Dang.
Bike 21 spotted the not-too-elusive bike salmon.
Vélo-flâneur pondered the weighty question of just why we consider it “good news” for there to be only 16,000+ traffic fatalities in [...]

San Diego has quite a number of bicyclists who write blogs. As far as we know, we have a pretty comprehensive list at right, but we know that not everyone has time to read all of those blogs, so every week we’re going to try to put together a roundup of what we consider the [...]
