Madison B-cycle Free during BTWW

By  May 10, 2012 | 4:00AM

Free rides and commuter support station aim to grow downtown two-wheeled transit
 
(Madison, WI) –Madison B-cycle, the city’s bike sharing program, is excited to announce that it will be offering free B-cycle trips during the Wisconsin Bicycle Federation’s Bike to Work Week, May 14th through 18th. The promotion is timed during Madison’s busiest bicycle commuting week of the year. Free B-cycles will provide easy access to two-wheeled transportation in hopes of getting more people riding bikes for short trips in and around Madison’s downtown. The cost of a 24-hour membership will be waived at all of the 27 B-cycle kiosks during the week, making all trips lasting less than thirty minutes free to all.
 
“Bike to Work Week is the perfect chance to try out B-cycle, even if you’re not using it for your morning or evening commute,” noted Claire Hurley, Madison B-cycle Manager. “It’s a great way to try out new restaurants people wouldn’t have time to walk to on a lunch break, or just to get out and stretch the legs during the day or after work.”
 
In addition to free access to the program, Madison B-cycle is hosting a commuter support station the Monday, Wednesday, and Friday of Bike to Work Week where the Southwest Commuter Corridor intersects Regent Street, Breese Terrace, and Monroe Street. Bike commuters can get an overview of the B-cycle program while enjoying complimentary coffee and bagels. The Madison B-cycle-sponsored commuter support station will be one of many around Madison, organized by the Bicycle Federation of Wisconsin.

    Hello Der-shing Helmer, and thanks for the great read!On your point I must csoefns, that some mediocre web comics can be bearable because they update often and on time (say, *cough* Wayward Sons). But when YOU are actually capable of this kind of quality, you should rather worry about keeping that standard and really not about quantity at all.Anyway, I don't think you can shut up all the spoiled children and anonymous a-holes out there on the internets by way of responding to theme280a6 Even if you told off all of those reading now, later other idiots will join (bet on it) who won't have read this thread.The only long time solution is to stop wasting emotional energy, period. You are so very good at your own thing, and you should focus on that. Best of health going forward and cheers :-)

    Seriously, don't sweat them. Real life gets in the way and all you can do is compromise it with what you want and what you need to do. Some plpoee don't seem to understand that. Or maybe they do and just don't care and think that you're doing them a service instead of just wanting to share a story with them on your own free time. Keyword being free time .I am amazed at the amount of sheer entitlement plpoee have in this day and age. Not just for webcomics but for just about any form of entertainment media. I'm sick of hearing plpoee demanding that things go their way at the expense of what the creator intended just because they didn't like it. Seriously, those type of plpoee need a life, preferably one away from the keyboard. All in all I'm glad you're doing better and that you got job and I just hope you'll be able to continue to share your story with us, rather the updates be late or on time. :)

  • Hamza | Jun 30 12:39 AM

    well you know us fans are hard to get rid of.take care of yourself. cotnrags on the employment hope it is enjoyable. I have always been delighted whenever this site has a star in it's top corner on my top sites' page.The love you profess for the work your doing is evident in each page. I agree if they don't like it they can make like a leaf and scram

  • Semilore | Jun 30 12:24 AM

    Here's why I think people shuold never mind if a comic isn't updated on time They can go live a life and when they have free time to check it, it'll be a little surprise if it is updated, and if it's not, back to life! This is a wonderful comic, for it's artistic quality and story. If it's not possible for you to put out a page with that beauty and plot then I would rather wait than have it suffer.<3

  • Claudia | Jun 29 10:58 PM

    Your one of the only web-comic artist who has a diuaogle with your fans. One of the other comics I watch took a year off, with nothing but excuses and missed deadlines with no apologies. At least you tell the truth and update when possible, I respect your comic I respect you and I think everyone needs to realize that you do what you have to do. I for one appreciate that you even go on facebook to update us on whats going on. Also Frank needs to chill out lol.

  • Dinha | Jun 29 10:46 PM

    I like your comic and I actually haven't ever ptesod before. Sorry about that. And I don't know what pain you are refering to, but as they say, a shot in the dark: if it is your arms, have you heard about trigger points? Because I hadn't and now I'm in trouble (not big trouble, but epically annoying trouble) for letting it go on for so long. But be it an early or late discovery the soultion is simple. So just in case. And they're always an issue anyway. Best of lucks, I really love your work and please forgive my english.

  • Yuichi | Jun 29 8:42 PM

    BeauFaith is our 6th sense. Faith leads us to TRUTH. Helen Keller proved this. She did not need eyes or ears to see the truth of God. All she nedeed was her faith alone to lead her in the right direction. She could not see or hear things like water and fire…but, like God, she knew it existed… she knew it was there! With Faith you can see things you thought you would NEVER see. With Faith you can hear things you thought you would NEVER hear. With Faith you are limitless.

  • Teoh | Jun 28 6:10 AM

    Hey Mandee,This is a big issue for so many of us..One of the best books I have read that helped me a lot is 'Eat that Frog' by Brian Tracy. Brian's beggist tip is religiously using lists for everything you want to get done each day, then prioritising these in order of importance (not necessarily urgency) and then focussing on the 20% of the tasks that will get you the most results.Off course you will never be able to get caught up on everything you want to do, therefore going for the most important tasks you can complete each day first is going to get you furthest in the quickest amount of time.Thanks for polling views on the subject!Johneal[]

I cant believe you are not very popular because you obviously have the gift.

  • Joe | Jun 27 10:16 AM

    This is probably the best bike traelir designs that I've ever seen. With features like solar and wind power, solar hot water, sink, stove, cooling fan and mister, shower. What really blew me away was the built in solar food dryer. Now how many people have one of those in their traelirs? Did you notice that it looks like he has what might be a herb garden on the front also.I suppose for a more permanent design it would be better to curve the front to more of a teardrop shape for less drag.

    We are planning to rretie in Iowa City and are thrilled to find this website (Bicyclist of Iowa City). We spend many weekends here and went out on our bikes this past one and found we could not figure out the web of lovely bike paths near Dubuque St. on the north side of I-80. We found a map at the Coralville Public Library but found it not detailed enough once we were out on the paths. Are there any plans for signage along the paths? Is there something we can do, as we plan to join the Johnson County Bicycle Club, to help with supporting signage?Thank you for this healthy and social option for new rretiees in Iowa City!
