His company has been unable to participate in any of our http://www.bikeroute.com/NationalMayorsRide2005National Mayors' Rides because he cannot find anyone daring enough to ride from Santa Rosa to Napa, a distance of 40 miles. So sad........ Bad news. I used to live and work in Santa Rosa. Stony Point Road has some pretty fast traffic and it's only two lanes in spots. People frequently go 60-65 MPH on it. Coincidentally, this is the road that I would take on a bike commute, as it runs parallel to 101. |

So sad........ Enough with your fear mongering. It hasn't worked in the past, and it won't work now. The reason nobody can be found to do the "Mayors' Ride" from Santa Rosa to Napa isn't because nobody is brave enough. It's because nobody cares about the "Mayors' Ride". -- terry morse Palo Alto, CA http://bike.terrymorse.com/ |
