How do you want your sales tax money spent?

We’re rushing to-wards a deadlinemid-April—theend of public in-put on the contentof Measure D re-newal language.Measure D is thecurrent half-centgeneral sales taxthat benefitstransportationwithin our county.

After the Association of Governments(SBCAG) Board meeting in December, whenmany criticized the proposed half-plus-quarter-cent tax, it seemed dead. Then at the SBCAG Ex-ecutive Committee meeting on January 6th inBuellton, the results of a new survey of countyvoters showed that 73% would vote for the half-cent, and 60% for the quarter-cent add-on tax.That brought them to believe that the wholethree-quarter-cent tax might work after all if it’sjust modified to satisfy voters.

At the general SBCAG Board meeting on Janu-ary 19th, Measure D consultant Larry Tramutolarecommended public input into the planning pro-cess. Interest groups, the cities, and public ingeneral had to be listened to. The plan, he ex-plained, needs revision, balance, and integrity interms of community desires. Craft it, he advised,so that the half-cent part addresses all transpor-tation needs, and the quarter-cent part gives ex-tra funding to speed things up.

At the end of the SBCAG meeting, director JimKemp, Larry Tramutola, and the SBCAG staff

were given the taskof obtaining com-munity input inFebruary and March,and incorporatingthose ideas into anew tax structure.These upcomingmeetings are vitalplaces to make ourvoices heard! Weurge you to attend

and tell everybody how you want your elected offi-cials to spend your tax dollars.

At our January 26th Board meeting, it wasagreed that some major tax elements to ask for are:• Complete Streets Policy. Our transportation tax

should benefit all users. Read about the CompleteStreets program at www.completestreets.org.

• Dedicated Safe Routes to School Program.Reduce school-related congestion and improvesafety and access to schools with a set-aside eachyear. Marin County has a very successful pro-gram. Look at www.saferoutestoschools.org.

• Dedicated Bicyclist/Pedestrian Program. Weshould dedicate an amount each year for improve-ments. Over 72% of county voters want moresidewalks and bike facilities.

• Road Maintenance. We all want better roadconditions for motorists, buses, and bicyclists.

• Bus and Rail Service Policy. All new large busand commuter rail service should provide accom-modation for bicycles.

The tax meetings haven’t yet been scheduled, sowatch for them. They will be before city councils,the county supervisors, business groups, PTAs,and community groups. Attend and speak out!

The local organizing committee coordinator BarneyBerglund attended our January 3rd meeting to de-scribe the scope of this major event passing throughour area. We are grateful to him for one of his five lo-cal booths to spread the word about the joys of bicy-cling around our County. We’ll be sharing the boothwith Santa Barbara Car Free.

We will need volunteers to staff our booth for bothdays. As this goes to press, the booth hours haven’tbeen set, but if you can help either day, phone RalphFertig at 962-1479.

The Tour itself needs volunteers to help managethings. It’s being coordinated by Steve Boelter. If youwant to hear more about volunteering, phone him at565-5776, email him at [email protected], or look at the volunteer form at www.sbbike.org/docs/Tour.doc.

For more information about the Tour itself, go to: www.tourofcalifornia.com.Santa Maria to buyopen space

On January 17th, the Santa Maria CityCouncil approved purchase of Las FloresRanch, a parcel of 1778 acres. The land isan abandoned oil field currently owned byChevron, and has deed restrictions prohib-iting residential development.

The tract of land is east of Highway 101and south of Clark Road. It is not adjacentto the City of Santa Maria, and is locatedacross the freeway from the Orcutt area.About 20% of the land will be used as aNorth County landfill, and the rest will beopen space and active recreation.

Mountain bike trails, a BMX track andbikelane access from residential areas willhopefully all be part of the recreationalplans. It will take years to design, fund,and construct anything, but the possibili-ties are totally open at this time.

Aftermath of a troubling loss

Friends of Kendra Payne laughed and cried atthe memorial service as they recalled timesspent with the charismatic UCSB student.

An outpouring of messages, condolences,tears, anger, alarm, and celebration of asadly-lost life have come to us as a result ofthe death of UCSB Triathlete Kendra Payneon January 11th. Most who have visited thesite where an asphalt truck ran over herfault the truck driver for failing to wait forher on the narrow section of roadway.

Questions immediately arose—what canwe do to prevent further losses? What willthe Highway Patrol report say? Should theCalifornia Vehicle Code be changed?

There are no clear answers. We are stillawaiting the CHP report that may lead to le-gal action involving the driver, the truckcompany, the Forest Service, or others.

Changes to the Vehicle Code have been

suggested, but several experts in Califor-nia bicycle law feel that upholding the ex-isting code should be sufficient—if weinsist that the police and courts apply it.

Cycling teams train inSanta Ynez Valley

Two cycling teams are training in theSolvang area prior to the Tour of California.The Discovery Team arrived in mid-Januaryand received their new Trek bicycles. TheDiscovery camp was reportedly like a stagerace, with riders on the road every day,performing specific tasks—and then eating,resting and recovering. Major riders areTom Danielson, Viatcheslav Ekimov,Paolo Savoldelli, and George Hincapie.

Coming to train in California for the firsttime, the Computer Sciences Corporation(CSC) Team or 30 riders will arrive beforethe Tour of California. The team includesBobby Julich, Christian Vande Velde, andDavid Zabriskie.

Freeland includescycling in lifestyle

by Ralph Fertig

Kenneth and Jill Freeland are people ofaction. On a Friday five years ago they de-cided to escape Los Angeles with their livesand move up the coast to Santa Barbara.The following Wednesday they bought ahouse in their new home town. They soughta place to pursue an active lifestyle, raise afamily, and enhance their quality of life.

Los Angeles loss has been our gain. Ken-neth is now operations manager for the TyWarner Sea Center located on StearnsWharf. He is an avid long-distance cyclistand trail runner. His wife Jill works for thenonprofit Easter Seals organization. Theyhave two children in local schools.

Kenneth first came to our attention whenhe phoned us in late December seekingideas about encouraging fellow workers tobike to work at the Sea Center or its parentorganization, the Santa Barbara Museum ofNatural History. He had already arrangedto have the Museum give a $50 rewardeach month to an employee who walks,bikes or buses to work. I put him in touchwith Traffic Solutions’ Erika Lindemannwho can offer employees the informationthey need to choose sustainable transporta-tion over single-occupancy automobiles. IfCottage Hospital can sponsor a Street Skillsclass for cyclists, perhaps the Museum—dedicated to the understanding of our en-dangered natural world—can as well.

With graduate degrees in anthropologyand law, and a few years of legal work be-hind him, Kenneth is aware of the need tobalance our lives and our world. Biking towork treads lightly on our planet’s threat-ened ecosystem, and Kenneth is workinghard to help us all share the responsibility.

Increase in bicycling media coverage slowingOver the past 14years, BicycleCoalition presi-dent RalphFertig hasclipped newspa-per articles andphotos that men-tion or show bi-cycling in anyway. Then, eachJanuary, he hascounted thosewhere bicyclingis a significantpart of the published item.

The resulting analysis shows a dramaticincrease in bicycling appearances for thefirst eight years, and a lesser increase overthe recent six years. It currently representsmore than one mention or photo of bicy-cling each day—there were 405 of themduring 2005.

Out of that 405 total, 46 were letters tothe editor or op/ed pieces submitted by in-dividuals. (They are grouped together inthe graph, and collectively called “Letters.”)We’re pleased to see that 18 of those 46 bi-cycling letters were written by members ofthe Bicycle Coalition. The most prolific con-tributor was Ralph Fertig with seven pub-lished. Next were Eva Inbar and DianeSoini with three each. Erika Lindemann

had two pub-lished; and onefrom these in-dividuals madeit into print:Don Lubach,RobertBernstein, andCurtis Ridling.Your concernfor better bicy-cling condi-tions makesour lives bet-ter. Thank you.

others who had begun to rideregularly for fitness and com-muting, but lacked confidencewhile on the road.

There was also an enthusi-astic response to learning ba-sic bike maintenance, such aschanging a flat tire and per-

forming other simple on-road repairs.Many thanks to our instructor ErikaLindemann and other dedicated LeagueCycling Instructors who helped make thisclass possible: Nancy Mulholland, Druvan Hengel, Hildy Hoffman and DorisPhinney. Thanks also to Kali Cowgill ofOpen Air Bicycles, who assisted with thebike maintenance component of the class.

Stay tuned for our next course offeringin March. If you have a specific group ofstudents you’d like the CycleSmart commit-tee to design a class for, email us [email protected] or call Erika Lindemannat 961-8919.

How to live longerResearchers involved with the BaltimoreLongitudinal Study of Aging found thatwhile the capacity for aerobic exercise de-clines steadily with age, an active lifestylecan slow the process. Seniors who exerciseregularly feel years younger and have abetter chance of leading longer, indepen-dent lives than their sedentary peers.

Just released, the 20-year study reportson 800 healthy women and men. Dr. JeromeFleg said, “By participating in a trainingprogram, you can raise your aerobic capac-ity 15%-25%, which in our study would beequivalent to being 10-20 years younger.”

Upcoming bike meetings & events

Brummer is laudedTim Brummer, owner of Lightning CycleDynamics in Lompoc, was cited by colum-nist John Schubert in a recent issue ofAdventure Cycling magazine. It describesinnovations introduced at the Interbiketrade show last September:

“Recumbent genius Tim Brummer hasmade the world’s lightest racing crankset,by a hefty four-ounce margin, by integrat-ing each crankarm with its half of thespindle. The two spindle halves join insidethe bottom bracket.”

SLO bike commutercontest winners

Our neighbor Bicycle Coalition to the northin San Luis Obispo recently held a “WhyBike to Work?” contest for people to tellwhy they commute to work (or school) bybicycle. Their contest brought in 21 entries,5 winners and 16 others, all of which areposted on their web site at: http://slobikelane.org/essaywinners.htm.The contest is essentially the same that weconducted in 2000 and 2002, with resultsfrom our enthusiastic Santa Barbara areabicyclists.

The University ofCalifornia SantaBarbara’s Transpor-tation AlternativesBoard (TAB) is anadvisory committeeto the Chancellor.The Board, estab-lished in April 2004,considers projectsand ideas that sup-port alternativetransportation oncampus and in thelarger community.

At their November 1st meeting last fall,the TAB considered Chair Bruce Tiffney’sreport on 2004-2005 academic year activities.Among the report recommendations are:• Set up a central bicycle planning process.• Consider concerns over the proposed

removal of the Pardall bike tunnel.• Send a TAB representative to AS BIKES

student committee meetings.• Work with campus planners to avoid bike

circulation problems during construction.

Bicycle Coalition president Ralph Fertig

started attending TAB meetings last fallwhen he introduced our organization anddescribed our ongoing involvement withcampus issues. He found a ready recogni-tion of bicycling as not merely the majormeans of transportation on campus, butalso one that TAB members clearly support.

Over the past decade, theSanta Barbara MountainBike Trail Volunteers(SBMTV) have put a largeamount of effort into ourtrail community. There isincreased trail use and withit, an increase in irrespon-sible users of all types. Thelocal press has emphasizedthe few reckless mountainbikers who don’t use bells,don’t slow at corners, racedown trails, don’t slow forothers, do no trail mainte-nance, and disregard the trail community.

A core of dedicated SBMTV membersbalance the damage those reckless ridersdo by creating an MTB group that is moreeducated, responsible, and aware of issues.The SBMTV is working with the Trails Alli-ance on shared goals of safety, enjoyment,

trail access, and environ-mental protection.

SBMTV volunteershave done trail mainte-nance, passed out over2000 bells for bikers,posted trailhead etiquettesigns, given “Ride Re-sponsibly” cards toshops, held “downhiller”meetings to discuss be-havior, hosted IMBA trailmanagement workshops,attended conferences onsustainable trails, helped

build new trails at Elings Park, participatedin the Front County Trails Working Groupand the Trails Alliance, hosted two “Take aKid Mountain Biking Day" events; andmuch more.
