Drew Reed’s report about Andy Clarke’s recent visit to Long Beach, California is now on line. Clarke is the Executive Director of the League of American Bicyclists—the national cycling advocacy and education organization based in Washington, D.C. Reed’s report and photos are now posted at LA.StreetsBlog.org.
On April 16th, many local cyclists and interested citizens, including numerous members of Long Beach Cyclists, met and cycled with Long Beach Mobility Coordinator Charles Gandy and Andy Clarke. In the morning, we were even accompanied by Jeff Mapes, the author of Pedaling Revolution. Throughout the day, we cycled along many Long Beach streets, contemplated traffic infrastructure improvements, and enjoyed local cycling life.
In addition to checking out Reed’s report, be sure to also watch Clarence Eckerson Jr.’s wonderful video, “Long Beach Shifts Cycling in to High Gear.“
