Mar 31 - New Streamliner

Good afternoon,
Last week I returned to Morgantown with my new car, a homebuilt full-suspension pedaled streamliner.  Today with Chad Jones (volunteer of the day) we put the fairing back on and rode around in the parking lot for some short demonstration riding.  It was a great ride, even though it was just around the parking lot.  Come to the shop and check it out if you're interested.  We'll be doing some rehab on this bike in the coming weeks.  I plan to make it my Wadestown commuter.  You can also view the video at this link to see it in action:


Today we made final arrangements with Duncan Bock of the Greenriders  for their June visit to Morgantown.  Duncan and his sister will be riding electric-assisted bikes across country from CA to DC.  They'll leave their home on Earth Day, April 23rd.  Along the way they'll be showcasing heroes of the environment who are making the necessary changes in lifestyle to make our lives sustainable - enjoyably.  In Morgantown they'll be the featured speakers at Green Night at the Library (Thursday June 24) and will also be guests for an event at the Paul Brown home in South Park the following day.  Positive Spin will support their message with information on how you can make your transportation more sustainable.  You can view their trip map and updates here:
