Good evening, As we discussed in tonite's meeting I've put a bike commuting buddy list up at the positive spin forum. You can get to it at this link. http://www.positivespin.org/forum
I haven't put much down in the way of rules, I'm hoping you can give me some feedback before we release it to the world.
You can read the list without joining, but posting requires that you be a member. Feel free to peruse some of the other topics too. I'm hoping to get a few more people contributing their thoughts and ideas. Plenty of people seem to be reading it, but not many are posting.
Thanks! Nick
Thanks, Nick! Here's what Duke's Bike Advocates Bike Commute Buddies form looks like: http://www.duke.edu/sustainability/commute_buddy.html
It appears the way this works is that submitted information goes to a central person(s), who then matches the interested person with a Bike Commute Buddy who is knowledgeable of the requested route.

Seems nice. Do you know of any campuses or other bike-orgs that provide a similar service, or one that has suggested commuting routes, via a maps.google.com thingy perhaps?
I believe this has been discussed ad nauseam but perhaps w/ the help of Nick or some other site we could perhaps post some routes for folks to turn to.

In looking at the site a little closer, it also appears that it hasn't been updated in a while, or there is no need to. :( http://www.duke.edu/sustainability/bike.html FREE Bike Repair Station!! WHEN: Tuesday, Sept 19 & 20, 10am-2pm looks like that happened in 2006.
Show Your Support for Biking at Duke!! DATE: Thursday, September 22nd RAIN OR SHINE! looks like that happened 2005.
Do these things just run out of steam?
Also Jon and Nick, and others- Fodder for a potential meeting w/ the MHS principal would be how other schools are being "progressive" and "forward thinking" in regards to alternate transportation to school. Might be nice to have some stats or examples of non-backwards thinking schools...
