New Haven Independent

This was an AWESOME event. Thanks to everyone who organized it! We had a wonderful time. Who knew New Haven was so incredibly bike-able? (with a police escort enforcing the intersections, anyway - it gave a taste of how civilized the New Haven roads could be, given half a chance).

I kind of wished we'd had a truck full of spare bikes (and helmets) so that the people we saw along the way could have up and joined in if they wanted to. The biking vibe was truly infectious. Two wheels good!

Thanks again to the organizers and sponsors. It was lovely.

PS those free T-shirts were cute - thanks! - but who's up for a Frock to Frock contingent next year? Let's take it up a notch and give those cute Copenhagenites a run for their money...

If you enjoyed the Rock to Rock ride, don't forget to check out this year's series of Arts & Ideas bike tours. The schedule is on the festival website: http://www.artidea.org/event.php?id=209

I agree, East Rockette! New Haven could be one of the world's most bikeable cities if the city would just set aside a few bike boulevards, like Berkeley, CA does.

This was a great ride. Thanks to Joel Tolman for pushing this through, & the City for supporting it--and Lt Witkowski for doing a great job of keeping the ride safe & accident free!
