Back From TrailLink 2007

Just wanted everyone to know that I've returned safely from TrailLink 2007.

As you can imagine, I have a lot of catching up to do regarding shipping orders, corresponding, returning voicemails, etc. Additionally, I have product reviews and photos to post from the trip so it's going to take a few days to catch up. I do want to share this though; the conference was amazing.

I learned about existing and coming bicycling projects from across the nation as well as studies and facts about bicycle usage. Clearly, cycling is emerging as a true transportation alternative in the USA. There is a long way to go; however, with the rising economic and environmental costs of burning fossil fuels, communities that encourage active transportation by making it easier to walk, bike & use mass transit (like Chicago, Minneapolis, New York City or Portland, Oregon) will thrive while others stagnate.
