June 2011 – Last month, while celebrating May is National Bike Month, the Bicycle Collective’s SLC Community Bike Shop was attacked by a car. No people or bikes were harmed, only — one less car. To celebrate the summer and their new front door, they are hiring! JP Orquiz and Brian Tecklenburg are now the new Shop Managers at the Ogden Community Bike Shop, and Hailey Broussard is now the Earn-a-Bike Director. At this time they are still looking to hire a Trips for Kids Director to coordinate youth MTB rides, info at www.slcbikecollective.org. As always, they need volunteers too! Volunteer mentors with regular availability sometime from 9 am until 3 pm are needed for their Earn-a-Bike program. They also need a small army to help with the many Valet Bike Parking events this summer.

The Park Tool School (www.parktool.com/clinics_training) is still taught every Monday starting at 6pm at the Community Bike Shop (2312 S. West Temple). Classes don’t build on each other, so jump in at any time. Participants will learn how to true wheels, adjust derailleurs and brakes, and general skills. See the Collective’s website (www.slcbikecollective.org) or call 801-FAT-BIKE for a schedule.

Bikes Fly Free on Frontier

June 2011 – Frontier Airlines has removed the flat fee for checked bicycles and will now include them in the standard baggage allowance, meaning customers traveling on Classic or Classic Plus fares can include their bike as one of their two complimentary checked bags and Economy passengers would pay $20 if the bike is one of their first two checked bags. Bikes will be exempt from any oversize fees, but subject to overweight fees and excess bag fees, if applicable. This is similar to the carrier’s current policy for golf clubs and skis. Frontier flies out of Salt Lake City.

[Editor’s Note: We can only hope that the other major carriers follow suit.]

2011 Utah Bike Summit A Success

By Tara McKee

June 2011 – The 2011 Utah Bike Summit was held on Friday, April 29th at the SLCC campus in Sandy. The night before the summit, Bike Utah hosted a special showing of “Race Across the Sky 2010” at the Jordan Commons Megaplex. A special Q & A was held after the movie with some of Utah’s top Leadville 100 racers, including Elden Nelson (aka “the Fat Cyclist”) and Glen Adams. During the raffle drawing, awesome prizes were given out and included great gear and other prizes from Specialized, I-Bert, DZ Nuts, Rockwell Relay, Lone Peak, Lifetime Fitness, Ruby Snap and many others.

Although the default location of the summit on the SLCC campus in Sandy was a bit controversial at first, those who attended did like the setting and some commented it felt more like a state summit, than a Salt Lake City summit. The registration fee was a new addition to this year’s summit, which helped cover many of the costs, including lunch. In spite of cold, rainy weather that day, participation actually went up; nearly 90% of those who registered attended and participants came from around the state.

Andy Clarke, president of the League of American Bicyclists made the keynote address titled “Bicycling: A Simple Solution that Makes Cents/Sense.” Ted Wilson, from the governor’s office, echoed that theme as he spoke on benefits from bicycling to the state of Utah. Panels and by other speakers underlined the fact that better cycling infrastructure, cycling events, tourism, and the better health of cyclists actually had good economic benefits to the community and the state. The summit’s expanded format included mountain biking, cycling tourism issues, subjects that included a focus on health, bike events, safe routes to schools and an introduction to the Utah Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Planning Guide.

Surveys showed that one of the most popular features of the 2011 Utah Bike Summit was the “State of the Bike” reports given from five of Utah’s towns. The reports showed off the communities’ cycling infrastructure (including trails), how the city was promoting cycling, and noted some of the cycling events that brought in tourists or engaged the community. Charlie Sturgis made the presentation from Park City, while Dan Stewart spoke on behalf of Moab. Zac Whitmore and Jim Price gave a joint report on the Provo/Orem area and Matt Hasenyager and Josh Jones showed off the best of Ogden’s cycling. During the lunch hour, Kevin Lewis and Paul Huddle made a presentation about St. George and noted the changes that hosting the Ironman have brought to the St. George area and how it has benefited cyclists. Next year’s summit will continue the “State of the Bike” reports with five other communities around the state.

The summit had some wonderful sponsors including Clif Bar, QBP, Alta Planning & Design, SelectHealth, Intermountain Health & Fitness Institute, Enve Composites, DZ Nuts, the Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Development, and ProBar. Specialized sponsored a dinner and meet & greet reception at the Salt Lake Bicycle Transit Center which followed the summit.

Andy Clark noted that Utah’s rank among bike friendly states had dropped from 10th to 31st place over the last couple years, but made the point, “Utah should not just be in the top ten…but should be number one!” He also made the point after listening to all the state of the bike reports from around the state and presentation about Utah as a top cycling destination, that Utah “was sitting on a gold mine” with the wealth of potential it had for great cycling (and mountain biking) within the entire state.

New Salt Lake City Bike Map Now Available
The New Edition of the SLC Bike Map

Dozens of miles of new bikeways, all-new cartography, and revised “tips” for bicycling in Salt Lake City are all featured on the new Salt Lake City Bikeways Map, released in mid-May during Utah Bike Week.

Published by Salt Lake City and the Mayor’s Bicycle Advisory Committee (MBAC),the 24” x 36” map shows bike lanes, pathways including the Jordan River Parkway and Bonneville Shoreline Trail, designated bike routes, and quiet streets that are good for cycling. The map also identifies bridges and difficult intersections where cyclists should be extra cautious. Bicycle-specific amenities such as bike shops, bike lockers, and trail access points are shown.

The new map is the first release since 2006.. The new text offers tips on commuting, sharing the road, route finding, bikes and transit, equipment choice and maintenance, along with bike route definitions and a welcome message from Salt Lake City Mayor Ralph Becker.

The map production was lead by Becka Roolf, Bicycle and Pedestrian Coordinator for Salt Lake City, and Dave Iltis, Chair of the MBAC. “The production of the map was a community effort,” said Roolf, “with many local bicyclists suggesting routes, helping to edit our text, and giving feedback on the map itself.”

Free copies of the map are available at all Salt Lake City bike shops. For those who want a more durable waterproof map, a version on plasticized paper is available for $4 at Fishers, Guthrie Bicycle, Bingham Cyclery, Wild Rose, Squatter’s Pub, Wasatch Touring, The Downtown Alliance, Saturday Cycles, Bicycle Center, and Salt Lake City Bicycle Co. Those businesses, Salt Lake City, and a Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant from the U.S. Department of Energy supported the map printing cost.

To obtain a PDF copy of the map or to learn more about Salt Lake City’s bicycle initiatives and the MBAC, visit slcgov.com/bike.

Cross After Dark Series to Include CrossVegas – World Champ Wellens Slated to Race

Cross After Dark Series to Include CrossVegas – World Champ Wellens Slated to Race

Four UCI cyclocross races have united to create a series that adds a unique twist to the U.S. cyclocross scene.  These prominent race directors announced the Cross After Dark series that will be comprised of nighttime races in September and October.

“We pioneered the idea of night cross in the US in 2002 with StarCrossed and we are excited to be apart of a full-blown series of floodlit cyclocross craziness for our tenth anniversary. I am very excited to see what seemed like a sketchy idea nine years ago turn into a new standard of what a great cyclocross races needs to be,” noted Terry Buchanan, promoter, StarCrossed.

“Who says nothing good happens after dark?” was the comment of CrossVegas organizer Brook Watts.  “We’re a group of race directors who like staging events that are ‘prime-time’ and have a different twist.”

Cross After Dark promises an overall prize list for the series of $5,000 to be split evenly between the men’s and women’s categories.

2011 Cross After Dark series races are:

CrossVegas – Wednesday September 14 – Las Vegas NV (C1)

Starcrossed – Saturday September 17 – Seattle WA (C2)

Gateway Cross Cup – Wednesday September 21 – St. Louis MO (C2)

Spooky Cross – Saturday October 15 – Irvine CA (C2)

Cross After Dark races are all established on the U.S. cross calendar except for newcomer Gateway Cross Cup.  The Gateway Cross Cup is a collaboration between St. Louis organizer Mike Weiss and CrossVegas’ Watts.  According to Mike Weiss, “We wanted to add some Midwestern flair to the U.S. cross scene and the early cross season is the perfect time.  St. Louis loves cycling and parties, this promises to deliver both.”

Spooky Cross director Dorothy Wong commented, “Orange County is centrally located to much of the Southern California cycling community and Spooky Cross brings out the best of cross racing including fun, fast racing, costumes, pumpkins… all under the night lights in Irvine.”

Update:

World Champ Bart Wellens. Photo: (c) Photopress.be

Two-time cyclocross World Champion Bart Wellens will begin his 2011 cyclocross season in the U.S. by racing the opening two rounds of the new Cross After Dark national cyclocross series.   Wellens and his Telenet Fidea teammate Rob Peeters, both of Belgium, will make U.S. cyclocross debuts at Cross After Dark Race 1, CrossVegas on September 14th.    The pair will then travel to Seattle on September 18th and 19th for the longstanding UCI Washington State cyclocross weekend at StarCrossed (Cross After Dark Race 2) as well as the Rad Racing GP.

“We are extremely excited to begin our campaign in the U.S.,” said Telenet Fidea manager Hans van Kasteren.    “Bart has raced road on the east coast of the U.S. with Timothy Johnson, but looks forward to his U.S. cyclocross debut on the West Coast.”

Top European cyclocross racers such as Erwin Vervecken, Francis Mourey, Helen Wyman, and Christian Huele have also raced in the U.S. in recent years, but the Telenet Fidea trip in fall 2011 signals a continued shift in the frequency of top-tiered European competitors traveling to the U.S. to race ‘cross.  September is early on the U.S. and European cross calendar, so to see top Belgians traveling so far to compete in some of the strongest U.S. races really speaks to the legitimacy of the U.S. cyclocross scene.

“Traditionally in the U.S., you’ll see top domestic racers travel, vacation, or live in Europe to hone their cross skills against European competition,” said Zac Daab, co-promoter of StarCrossed Cyclocross in Seattle, WA.   “This year, Telenet Fidea is heading to the U.S. to string a series of races together for Bart Wellens and Rob Peeters that allow them to gain early season fitness, capture UCI points and test themselves over here before the 2013 Worlds.”

CrossVegas promoter Brook Watts added, “I’ve been preaching the benefits of the early season U.S. races to the Europeans for some time, I think we’re at the tipping point now where they see the value in making a trip over here to compete against our top pros who start the season well prepped.”

Complete Series details will be available at www.crossafterdark.com.

Bikes for Kids Utah Rolls On with Successful Bike Giveaway, Safety Rodeo and Nutrition Instruction
Bikes for Kids 2011

SALT LAKE CITY – May 21, 2011 – Just in time for summer vacation, 1,000 pre-selected second graders received brand new bicycles, helmets and a t-shirt from the Bikes for Kids Utah Bike Giveaway. The May 21 festival-style event, held at the Intermountain Medical Center parking lot in Murray, Utah, also included a Bike Safety Rodeo and nutrition instruction. Greeted by more than 150 volunteers, students and their families walked from tent to tent participating in educational presentations about healthy nutrition by Intermountain Medical Center staff, and helmet fittings and a Bike Safety Rodeo operated by volunteers.

When asked about his experience at the Bikes for Kids giveaway, Jacob Pryor, a second grade recipient from Sandy, said, “My favorite part about today was getting to try out the track [bike rodeo].  I learned hand signals, how to stop, turn left and turn right.” He was also excited to get his bike home and “ride it around the block with my friends.”

Parents echoed similar sentiments as they watched their kids receive unassembled boxed bikes. Recipient families had the option to either take them home to assemble, or build them onsite with the help of several Boy Scouts working towards their Eagle Scout award and bike shop mechanics from around the area.

“My son was just really excited about today. He was excited to help make coloring books for Primary Children’s Hospital and was even more excited when he found out that he was going to get a bike,” said Dina Bain, parent of an Alta View student recipient. “His dad also likes to ride bikes, so I imagine they’ll be riding a lot together this summer.”

New to this year’s Bike for Kids Utah application process, elementary schools and community outreach programs committed to completing a service project with their students before receiving their promised bicycles.

“When you ask people about their first bike, most people can’t help but light up. They remember the freedom and the ‘king of the world’, ‘I can conquer anything feeling’ they experienced as a kid,” said Debbie Reid, Bike for Kids Utah founder. “Today we’re teaching about health and we’re teaching about safety but above all I hope the kids remember the joy they felt here and the giving. I hope they go out and become healthy, active givers who work to be the change they want to see in the world.”
The next Bikes for Kids Utah fundraising event will be the inaugural Bikes for Kids Utah stage race August 5-6 followed by a dinner/silent auction Sept. 23 at the Varsity Room in Rice-Eccles Stadium. More information about the stage race and fundraising dinner can be found online as it becomes available.

The Bikes for Kids Giveaway is made possible through help of volunteers and donations made by individuals and companies such as A-Core Concrete Cutting, Alder Construction, Blackbottoms Cyclewear, Elements Wilderness Program, Fifty Studio, Honey Bucket, Larry H. Miller Charities, Mass Mutual Financial Group, Rotary Club of Murray, Skyline Electric Company, SOAR Communications and Sorenson Legacy Foundation.

Those interested in becoming corporate sponsors, giving individual donations or volunteering their time should visit www.bikesforkidsutah.com, or call 801.656.0472 for more information.

Specialized To Lead Industry Sustainability Initiatives

Specialized has launched a comprehensive sustainability initiative by incorporating OIA Eco-Index evaluation of their products during product creation, and leading a carbon fiber recycling coalition. “We are committed to becoming the leader of sustainable practices in the cycling industry,” said Specialized President and Founder Mike Sinyard.
“As cyclists, we are passionate about our time outdoors, and by nature of the sport, are tied to the health of the planet. We want to ensure this is reflected in how we manufacture bicycles, and ultimately, that the cycling industry becomes the model other industries look to on sustainability practices.”
To spearhead this effort, Specialized has hired Bryant Bainbridge as the company’s full-time sustainability strategist. Bainbridge, a Specialized R & D employee in the ‘80s, returns to the company from Nike, where he directed the team that created sustainability metrics for the brand; and co-authored Nike’s Considered Index—widely recognized as one of the most comprehensive systems for predicting the environmental footprint of products during the design phase.
Coinciding with their sustainability initiative, Specialized has become the first major cycling industry member to join the Outdoor Industry Association (OIA) Eco-Index: A comprehensive system for evaluating and improving the environmental footprint of products during the design stage.
“We are calling for other members of the cycling industry to join us, and support the OIA in its effort to create an equipment module for the Eco-Index, designed to address the environmental footprint of the products sold in our industry,” said Specialized Chief Product Officer Eric Edgecumbe.
In particular, Specialized is concerned about carbon fiber recycling. “The cycling industry uses massive amounts of the material; however, established methods of take-back and re-processing have yet to be created. We all benefit from pulling together on critical issues like this one. Therefore, we are requesting the formation of a cycling industry coalition to lead the recycling of carbon fiber,” explained Edgecumbe.
We envision the coalition as a mix of visible brands large and small, with the goal of aligning the cycling industry with programs currently underway in the aerospace industry, to establish take-back streams for carbon product at end of life. Specialized is reaching out to create an industry-wide coalition, which will target U.S. and European brands having shown an interest in making this effort a reality.
“We are very excited to begin the work that will compliment efforts already underway in apparel and footwear with groups like the OIA and Sustainable Apparel Coalition,” said Bryant Bainbridge. “As a leading global brand, we take our responsibility to engage and lead in this effort seriously.”

Pinkham and Hill Win Antelope Island Classic

Pinkham and Hill Win Antelope Island Classic

By Ryan Barrett — Chase Pinkham (Bissell Pro Cycling) and Megan Hill (Revolution Café Rio) took wins in the Antelope Island Classic on April 30. Despite waking to several inches of new snow, conditions improved dramatically by the time the elite racers took the start with dry, if cold, conditions prevailing.

Photo: CottonSoxPhotography.net

The 63 mile men’s race was animated early by Sam Krieg (Ski Utah-MarketStar). Known for his ability to time trial, his move had the rest of the field on high alert and after a concerted chase from nearly every other team in the race, he was brought back in the fold. Several other attackers tried and failed to get a gap, as the field thinned from the back on the island loop section of the course. It was again Krieg who attacked and opened a gap on the field with two laps left on the island.

 

Sensing the danger, Pinkham forced a split over the feedzone hill at the beginning of the final out-and-back section of the course. Four riders were able to stick with Pinkham- junior Colin Joyce (Hot Tubes Development Cycling Team), Dave Harward (Canyon Bicycles) and last years’ winner Erik Harrington (RMCC/Cyclesmith). Realizing that he had no teammates in the chase group, Krieg continued to push on alone before ultimately being caught inside the final 10k.

Coming into the final climb, the lead group shattered with Pinkham and Joyce opening a gap on the remaining riders. The two played a bit of cat and mouse, with Pinkham jumping first and taking the sprint in front of the impressive display from the sixteen year old Joyce, who was racing in his first Pro 1-2 event! Dave Harward led home the rest of the group to complete the podium.

The Women’s Pro 1-3 covered 43 miles. Despite aggressive racing, the field stayed largely intact longer than that of the men. Ultimately, some spirits were broken by the severity of the course and the insistent attacks.

Two women had a gap on the finishing climb- with Hill (Revolution Café Rio) taking the sprint in front of Kathryn Carr (Vanderkitten). Kaytie Scott (Simply Mac) racing followed shortly after to snag the final spot on the podium.

SALT LAKE CITY (May 10, 2011) – Utah City Crits, the source for criterium cycling races in cities throughout Utah, announced today that that it has teamed up with seven of Utah’s best cities for the Four for Forth and OZone Crit Challenge criterium cycling races, now open for registration. The two series’ represent the first time in Utah’s history where criterium races have been established in multiple cities throughout the state. “Criteriums offer an exciting opportunity for residents in cities throughout Utah to watch elite cycling in a fun and festive setting”, commented Utah City Crits Owner and Founder, Dirk Cowley. “We look forward to offering Utah’s cities a unique and fun activity to enjoy during the summer months.” Criteriums is a fast paced bike race held on a short course run on closed-off city streets, letting spectators watch the action as it unfolds with racers passing by several times, instead of just once per race as in larger “tour” bicycle races.

Sponsored by OZone Fit, a leader in delivering entertaining and social-based fitness programs driven by an innovative rewards system at their training facility in Draper, Utah and through their online portal at www.ozonefit.com, the OZone Crit Challenge will feature two additional criterium races in Draper, Utah on July 13 and Lindon, Utah on August 10.
OZone Fit Co-Founder Darin Toone notes, “OZone Fit is proud to be the title sponsor of the OZone Crit Challenge. We are excited to help Utah City Crits evolve and grow as it establishes a series of criterium races in multiple cities for the first time ever in Utah.” The Four for the 4th crit series will offer residents in four Utah cities the opportunity to enjoy world-class cycling in a family friendly setting over four consecutive days, leading up to the Fourth of July. The series will begin on July 1 in Midvale, Utah continuing on July 2 in Lehi, Utah and July 3 in Bountiful, Utah. The final race will be held on July 4 in Holladay, Utah.
Point totals in the Four for the 4th series and the OZone Crit Challenge will count towards the Utah Criterium Race Series point totals. There will also be a cash purse for the overall winner, series winner and the winner of each individual race.

AASHTO Provides $5,000 to Support Technical Work on the U.S. Bicycle Route System

Support will aid Adventure Cycling Association in assisting states with route selection and technical aspects of creating U.S. Bicycle Route System

Missoula, Montana — This morning Adventure Cycling Association announced that the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials’ (AASHTO) is providing Adventure Cycling $5,000 to assist states with route selection and the technical aspects associated with the development of a U.S. Bicycle Route System (USBRS).

“This marks the sixth year of our partnership with Adventure Cycling,” said John Horsley AASHTO’s executive director. “We are pleased to contribute funds that will provide technical support and other resources to the states as they work to create a U.S. Bicycle Route System.”

On May 2, Adventure Cycling kicked off a grassroots fundraising effort to raise $30,000 to support its ongoing organizing and technical assistance efforts for the emerging route network. “We’re very please with AASHTO’s support of our work on the U.S. Bicycle Route System,” said Ginny Sullivan, coordinator for the USBRS and Adventure Cycling’s special projects director. “We’ve worked together for six years, but in many ways this project is just ramping up as states begin work on implementation and submitting applications to AASHTO for new route approvals. It’s an exciting phase!”

Adventure Cycling’s Build It. Bike It. Be a Part of It. campaign will run through National Bike Month, ending on Tuesday, May 31, 2010. Using social media tools, a group of dedicated fundraisers, and leveraged funds from a diverse roster of business and organizational donors, Adventure Cycling hopes to inspire cyclists across America to donate $10 or more to help build this national network of cycling routes. As of today, Adventure Cycling has raised over $20,000 through this effort.

Thirty states are now working on U.S. Bicycle Routes and during the first week of May, AASHTO approved the first new U.S. Bicycle Routes in over 30 years. AASHTO is a nonprofit, nonpartisan association representing highway and transportation departments in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. A powerful voice in the transportation sector, its primary goal is to foster the development of an integrated national transportation system.

“With the new route approvals and widespread state support for the U.S. Bicycle Route System, we had hoped to see slightly more robust donations during this year’s campaign,” said Winona Bateman, Adventure Cycling’s media director and an organizer of the campaign. “However, we are tracking ahead of last year and AASHTO’s generous donation puts us much closer to our goal.” Last year, the campaign raised over $27,000.

The U.S. Bicycle Route System is a proposed national network of bicycle routes that span multiple states and are of national and regional significance. These routes will serve as visible and well-planned trunk lines for connecting city, regional, and statewide cycling routes, and provide transportation and tourism opportunities across the country.

A highly collaborative effort, the U.S. Bicycle Route System project is spearheaded by a national AASHTO task force and involves officials and staff from state DOTs, the Federal Highway Administration, and nonprofits organizations such as Adventure Cycling, the East Coast Greenway Alliance, and Mississippi River Trail, Inc.

Adventure Cycling has provided dedicated staff support to the U.S. Bicycle Route System project since 2005.

Since 2006, Adventure Cycling’s work on the U.S. Bicycle Route System has been supported by Adventure Cycling members and donors, as well as by grants from Bikes Belong, Educational Foundation of America, Lazar Foundation, New Belgium Brewing Company, SRAM Cycling Fund, the Surdna Foundation, and last year, by funds from AASHTO’s Center for Environmental Excellence.

When complete, the U.S. Bicycle Route System will be the largest official bike route network on the planet, encompassing more than 50,000 miles of routes. Learn more atwww.adventurecycling.org/usbrs.
