Live near cycling infrastructure or not, new blog: Velo-city 2012 conference blog

New blog of possible interest for cyclists, urban planners, designers, anyone etc.:  Velo-city Global 2012 cycling conference blog. http://www.velo-city2012blog.com  to be in Vancouver June 2012.  Last year in Copenhagen, it attracted over 1,000 delegates worldwide.

 

Give your response to brief simple survey on whether or not you live near cycling infrastructure:

It's just to get dialogue going and get people thinking. We've had abit more Canadians respond, but hope there will be more of you. A healthy contingent of American respondents, etc.

 

Vancouver is way more cycling friendly than ie. Calgary, where I spend some time too. (for a job) 

Having balmier weather helps alot too.

Yes, we will summarize results on blog.  Some interesting responses.

Discussion Forum

Food

Local, organic, rural, and/or urban, food production is a mainstay of life, and doing it well leads to wellness. From farm to kitchen, discussions relating to food--and the community arising around it--belong here.

59 discussions

Transportation

If you have to leave your village, how will you get where you want to go? By car? Preferably not, both for your wallet and the earth’s sake. This category is for all discussions relating to how we all get around.

5 discussions

Housing

A human right? After food, most feel shelter is the most important necessity. A place of shelter is also the start of a community. This category is for all things relating to shelter, housing, affordable housing, homes, renewable heating systems, green buildings, heritage, and our built environment in general.
