My group of recumbent bike riders are very excited about these plans. We are the oldest and largest group of recumbent riders in N.Texas and log thousands of miles annualy. It will be a great day indeed when the entire DFW metroplex is linked together via safe bikeways. I do most of my miles on the Trinity Trails for now but if my trails here are linked with those in Dallas, well,, I’m just going to have to pack up a trailer and buy extra bateries for my camera and keep riding till I complete riding the whole new system. I would love to see more people be encouraged to ride to work ocasionaly and a more eloborate system would encourage that. It would make them healthier and bring people closer together.
j.martin: Thought I’d send this your way. I sent emails out to many bicycling groups to participate in the Bicycle Fair and Showcase we’re doing on Oct 22nd from 12-6pm in Lake Cliff Park, Oak Cliff. I didn’t hear back from your group, but we’d love you guys to be involved and exhibit your organization.
