Know Your Author – Who is “Johnny”?

bicyclepointofview.blogspot.com


First off I want to say that I’m not the type of person to go off on a tangent about my life’s story, especially to people I don’t know on a blog. So even with this little insight into who I am there is nothing more personal about me than what’s already available online.

You Did It! Bike/Ped Safety Measure Included in Cromnibus

BikeTexas


Congress passed the 2015 budget bill (Cromnibus) over the weekend, which includes a safety performance measure for bicycles and pedestrians– a measure that people who ride bikes have been asking for during 2014. Your voice has made a difference– thank you!
We’d like to thank Texas’ Rep. Michael McCaul, who at BikeTexas’ request was one of the original bill sponsors for safety performance measures. Rep. McCaul’s support for government accountability for all forms of transportation sends a clear signal that he is …
