BTWD is a national day of cycling to work and is part of National BTWD week! In celebration, LB Cyclists has put together it’s 3rd annual Pit Stop,  this time, down in Belmont Shore. We moved from our previous location at the Belmont Pier because we think it’s important to move around the city especially into communities that are starting to become more bike friendly, AND for a change of demographic and scenery. Jones Bicycles has chosen to help us out by letting us set up in front of their shop, and is donating several things to be raffled off!

Speaking of raffles…Many local businesses have donated incredible gifts for us to share with local cyclists; Including: Gift Certificates to local restaurants and shops, bike accessories, water bottles and more! Food will also be provided for free including bagels from Noah’s and coffee from Portfolio Coffeehouse.

In an effort to take advantage of the large amount cyclists dropping by, we will be offering advice, educational material, maps and many free giveaways!

And FINALLY, we will also be providing Free 5 min quick bike tune ups (air, small adjustments, and advice) to whoever wants to wait for an open stand and friendly mechanic!

Bring your bicycle related concerns and questions AND a reusable mug for coffee!

There has been a lot of buzz regarding the new bike lane treatment on the Eastbound side of 2nd street that runs through Naples Island.  This could prove to be a successful facility, but in the meantime, I think we need some bold traffic signage for our motorist friends!
