  Tucson Bike Lawyer — Authority: 131
  Several people have sent me this article from Thursday’s L.A. Times on the efforts there to start a ciclovia. Imagine L.A. without cars. A town where people ride their bikes and walk in the streets, and the smell of tacos and veggie burgers drifts through the air instead of exhaust. Sound like a pipe dream? Not ...

  Tucson Bike Lawyer — Authority: 131
  A contrast I noticed between two of my days in Bogota best describes my experience there. I spent a Saturday riding by myself through many of the bike paths that my guide Andres had not shown me on the day before. It was a pretty bad day. I have never seen traffic like what I saw that day, in any city. Nor have I ...

  Tucson Bike Lawyer — Authority: 131
  What an exhilarating day! I hired Andres of Bogota Bike Tours to give me a tour of the city. He inquired about my interests and then tailored a full-day (by that I mean nine hours!!) tour of Bogota’s ciclorutas (bike routes) all across the city. We rode many miles today.
