We had a great ride with the Edina Major! 3 out of 4 Council Members were able to see us of (2 actually rode with us) plus our City Engineer, Dale Woodbeck from Three Rivers Park District, members of the Bike Edina Task Force, and several residents (nearly 30 people). Alice Hulbert and Kirk Johnson led the ride and it was a great experience, viewing examples of community gardens along the Midtown Greenway, proximity of rail road tracks to walk/bike trails, opportunities for traffic control improvements in Edina and SLP, the new Freewheel Bike Center (one of my favorite comments from a city leader was "How can we get one of those in Edina?", and the Martin Sabo Bridge.
Opportunities like these are excellent ways to get out, observe, be informed, think about possibilities, make friends, and have fun! Several requests to do it again. Visit BikeEdina.org and click on the Calendar to see events. Maybe you can join us next time.
