Weekend Wrap-Up
Hi everyone. Â I’m going to keep it short today as I have quite a bit on my plate. Â Here’s a few pages on facebook I discovered recently which made me happy.
By now you’ve heard of the young woman who was struck by a car as she was biking on Cooper Street this weekend. Â I don’t have any information beyond what is in the linked article; if any of you have any information about her status, feel free to leave it in the comments. Â Here’s hoping she has a speedy recovery and that the driver who hit her is brought to justice.
This guy is awesome. Â I mean, he would complete pwn the next Tweed Ride.
We now have bike lanes on Chelsea Avenue! Â I was going to ride them this weekend but was busy doing other things. Â I’d love to hear about them in the comments.
Lastly, I missed this year’s Tour de Bird, mostly due to bad planning. Â I did see a few of the riders as I was heading home from downtown. Â It looked like a good crowd. Â You can read more about it here.
I got a comment/question on my “About” page from a reader who wants to bike from Memphis to New Orleans (hell yeah!) and is looking for more information about how to do that. Â (Scroll to the bottom to his his comment – his name is Ryan.) Â I really don’t have any information about how to do that, as cool as it sounds – please help out a fellow cyclist in the comments.
Alright Memphis, time to earn some $$$. Â Have a good week.
