Good Night Hubway: Take Down Dates & Updates

A PSA for anyone who uses the Hubway system.  Closing up for the winter.

Good Night Hubway: Take Down Dates & Updates

For the safety of our members and the health of the bike fleet, we will be taking the system off the street for the winter months. Beginning November 21, we will remove 5 stations per day until 11:59 PM on November 30 when the system officially closes. You will still be able to return bikes after that time but new rentals will not be allowed.
We will give 48 hours of notice preceding the take down of a station. Be sure to follow us on Facebook, on Twitter, and on the Hubway website news page for take down updates.

Bike Lanes on Dot Ave. - finally!

Yes it's true.  The city has finally come through with the promised bike lanes on Dorchester Avenue.  The lanes are nearly continuous from Glovers Corner up to Broadway in South Boston.  And sharrows have been painted South of Glover's through fields corner at last report.  This is great news.  We're going to have an impromptu morning commute in ride tomorrow Friday Nov 4th in celebration of these lanes.  So meet us at Ashmont Cycles at 7:30 or join in along the way.

Here is a pic courtesy of David of some of the actual paint going down.

 And here are a couple of Dot Bikers using the new lanes.

Thanks to everyone who signed the Letter

The folks who prepared the DCR grant for the Neponset Greenway Completion have set up a great site with some photos, information and the grant narrative itself.  Check it out HERE.  

We sent our letter of support of the DCR TIGER III grant to complete the Neponset Greenway.  

Thanks to all of you who signed on to the letter or sent one of your own.  It's this type of community support that can really make a grant like this stand out and get the job done.

Let's all keep our fingers crossed that the grant is well received and gets funded. We'll let you know as soon as we hear anything.
