"In Starting to Dream Again, we meet Dave Sagal and join him on his very first test ride aboard a prototype of the new Bowhead RX adaptive mountain bike. Rather than a simple shakedown ride on a local rail trail, he chooses an ambitious route for his inaugural outing, the Goat Creek Trail."

@coregaze @kca @tess ENOUGH people can ride bikes that 90% of us don't need to be driving cars for short trips.
Not everyone can drive a car.
But even if they could, mandating cars as the ONLY transportation option cannot work because #GeometryHatesCars. There are bikes for people with special needs, extra cargo, passengers, #eBikes, #AdaptiveBikes, #CargoBikes that could replace over half of car trips if SOME minuscule fraction of cars (& mostly just the bad drivers) would get out of the way
@fbaum The first handcycle we saw in Monterey County was in 2010 or 2011, when we met Ed biking on the Monterey Bay Sanctuary Scenic Trail's City of Monterey section.
As we noted in our perennials post (where he's among those featured) https://bikemonterey.org/perennials-biking-monterey-county.html, Ed's career expertise demanded many working hours at the computer. That made those hours with his handcycle a very desirable way to keep life in balance! :)
