Things are moving for cyclists in the city of Temecula. Temecula Bicycle Coalition met again with city leaders, including councilmembers Chuck Washington and Mike Naggar, new City Manager Bob Johnson, and here is what they are committing to: Connnect the city's on street bicycle lanes, explore adding bike paths on rivers and flood channels, adding more bike racks, our first ever city sponsored Bicycle Rodeo on Feb. 10, bicycle safety classes taught by our League of American Cyclists instructor, and dedicating a staff member, a planner to work on nothing but bicycle trails. The city is very interested in having a city wide system of bike lanes and trails, especially a bicycle connection to Wine Country. There are a couple of new bike racks in Old Town, and four more on the way. Thanks to everyone for your hard work on these projects, and support the Bicycle Rodeo on Feb. 10!
