@ascentale @PamelaSchure @bikenite #BikeNite #BikeNite25April2025 #A7 This reminds: We enjoyed meeting Bike Tennessee folks at Sea Otter Classic. Seems they’ve come up with a great tourism initiative for their state, biketn.com.

Here in Monterey County, California helping visitors who bike was one of our first projects, beginning in 2009, hence remains an alternate URL — https://tipsfortourists.com — aka bikemonterey.org. Helping tourists/visitors is mentioned in this 10th anniversary post. https://bikemonterey.org/may-1-10th-anniversary-of-the-bicycling-monterey-site-and-projects.html

In our Bicycle Maps section https://bikemonterey.org/tips-for-tourists/once-you-start, we include links not only to Monterey County’s bilingual (Spanish-English) bike map https://bikemonterey.org/bicycle-map-for-monterey-county.html, but also to some other California bike maps. For more, we encourage checking with other California Bicycle Coalition aka #CalBike Local Partners: https://www.calbike.org/about_us/who_we_are/local_partners/

HOW MANY BIKES DO YOU HAVE? 1
HOW MANY ARE WORKING? 1
HOW MANY DO YOU THINK SHOULD BE WORKING? 1
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO FIX THEM UP? A-OK, no current maintenance needed.
IF THEY WERE ALL WORKING, HOW MANY WOULD YOU RIDE REGULARLY I.E. AT LEAST ONCE A MONTH? 1
WHAT WOULD YOU DO WITHOUT EXTRA/SPARE/OTHER BIKES? We've given away all bikes we were no longer riding—as we did with each of those pictured, our most recent rides—1st, our Univega; then our Raleigh Superbe iE; and last, our Giant hybrid (we hung on to our Giant as a 2nd bike for a long time, until we accepted we wouldn’t be riding it anymore). With each, the recipients had no bike & were really glad to get them.
WHERE/HOW DO YOU STORE THEM? We store our only bike in house, for theft prevention.
WHEN WILL YOUR STABLE BE COMPLETE? We’re complete with 1, but it’d be a welcome luxury to have a new model #TernBicycles #TernGSD too. That'd allow us to carry neighbor children plus cargo.
