The relationship between the three-wheel wonder known as the Trikke and the city of Long Beach, CA, just got a little friendlier after Mayor Bob Foster and Councilwoman Rae Gabelich were introduced to yet another bike-like alternative for the most bike friendly city in America.
The meeting took place on Wednesday, June 1, 2011, in the Bixby Knolls neighborhood at a press conference highlighting the city’s Bike Friendly Districts, designated areas where local businesses and residents are encouraged to cycle their way to discounts, better health and a more active community.
The diverse, urban beach town with half a million residents is in the midst of a decades-long makeover that’s turning Long Beach into, not only the most bike friendly city, but the most bike-alternative friendly city as well.

To understand just how many ‘breakers’ and families have hit town — the ride up to Apache took almost 2 hours, instead of the usual 20 to 30 minutes!

Grabbed my Skki gear and rambled on up Ski Run Road to Apache. It’s Spring Break now, and hundreds of kids and co-eds have sprung forth upon Ruidoso. Up on the slopes, it was a three-ringed obstacle course of chaos. The trumpet call has gone out that the mountain had two feet of new snowfall a day and a half ago. Every type of snow sport enthusiast was present. The temps are climbing in sync with the season so a lot of the snow was turning to slush. Read More...
