Week 6 of Talbot Avenue not being done. Although the lines are scraped off Columbia and they took the biker chevrons out of Codman Square (a failed experiment or per me, ‘it looked better on paper’). Dotbike is upgrading its website so look for a slick deal there. To me it is guilding the lilly a bit as I thought Andy did a great job with the tools that he had and it has been a very effective site. We’ll see how the new one ends up, but hey you gotta keep keeping on for sure. There may well be better accounting on the advocacy front from what I’ve seen…What ever has happened to the Neponset Path link (used to be the Missing Link but PR thought better of that…)
Otherwise it sounds as though Dot will have a new bike store beginning in March! I didn’t ask how public I could go with this, but anyone following biking in the city has seen a number of posts related to someone exploring the possibility of a store in Dot. Well I’ve heard from the horses mouth that a lease has been signed on an empty storefront in Peabody Square! Names have been discussed. Manufacturers are being contacted. Business plans completed. A March target date has been set to start. Good luck! You got all my business unless of course I get a flat closer to JP than Dot… Since I don’t repair tires, there will be 3 or 4 a year easy. We’ll be certain to post more as the time comes! Here’s kudos to someone thinking the best of Dorchester! I hope the guy cleans up!
We’ll get back to the ‘to do’ list this week. We could have some fun with that! Keep an eye on the flickr site for updates. Feeling like we might have some fun there with the width of Dot Ave as well as some more street scenes of bike lanes etc… Keep peddling!
