A full house at the Bike Summit
Monday’s agenda featured inspiring keynote speakers from prominent organizations in the bicycling industry. Tim Blumenthal of Bikes Belong, Dan Grunig from Bicycle Colorado, Randy Neufeld from SRAM and John Burke of Trek Bicycle Corporation helped motivate attendees to take action in building a more bicycle-friendly Colorado. A session on advocacy issues was followed by breakouts on Mountain Biking, Safe Routes to School and Complete Streets. Story continued on Page 6
Bangs Canyon Trails Ready to Ride
B
icycle Colorado’s trail work in Bangs Canyon near Grand Junction wrapped up last fall. Through a partnership with the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and local mountainbike group COPMOBA, we completed the three-year project of creating a network of sustainable singletrack trails. The project garnered national attention for developing trails within riding distance of a nearby city. We continue work in the Gunnison Gorge National Conservation Area to develop a connected trail system. Bicycle Colorado Executive Director Dan Grunig recently presented to senior leaders at the BLM about developing partnerships and creating similar sustainable opportunities in Colorado.

“Bicyclists Don’t Pay Taxes” Myth
Bicycling plays a key role in Colorado efforts related to health, transportation and recreation. Bicycling also provides significant economic benefits to Colorado. This is an exciting time for bicycling in Colorado as momentum builds towards a more bicycle-friendly state. Our inaugural Colorado Bicycle Summit had more than 200 participants from the bicycling and healthy transportation world. Attendees collected great ideas, strategies and energy that they are taking back to their own communities. Transportation decisions are increasingly being directed to the state level, and the statewide summit is one of the best ways we can make sure bicyclists are involved with decisions in our state government. I encourage everyone to get involved next year. Bicycling events are growing steadily in popularity, and this event season should be no exception. Be sure to check the Bicycle Colorado website for a list of event members who support our mission of creating a more bicycle-friendly state and participate in those events. Bicycle Colorado is continuing our efforts to keep roads open to bicyclists through our advocacy work and educational programs. You can read about what our Safe Routes to School staff is working on and our adult Bicycle Commuter program on pages 5 and 7. And don’t forget our annual Gala to kick off the cycling season on April 29. Hope to see you there! I urge you to stay involved with Bicycle Colorado’s important work and keep the excitement going as you get back on the saddle this spring and summer. It’s as easy as renewing your membership, staying connected through eNews and Facebook or simply following the rules of the road. Happy riding, Andrew Shoemaker President, Board of Directors

Trail Blocked for Mountain Bike Safety Act
T
he Colorado Mountain Bike Safety Act (Senate Bill 36), sponsored by state Senator Greg Brophy (R) and Representative Andy Kerr (D), was defeated in the Senate Judiciary Committee on January 31, 2011. The bill aims to develop mountain-biking areas and events by defining the inherent risks of mountain biking and reducing the liability of landowners who allow mountain biking on their land. You can see the votes and read the bill at www.BicycleColorado.org.
We’ve all heard it before, “Get your bike off the road; you don’t pay taxes!” Our confident replies explaining that most bicyclists own cars and also buy gas don’t seem to gain any traction. So here is a new approach that busts the myth once and for all.
Thank you to everyone who called their senator in support of mountain-bike access and safety. Special thanks to IMBA, COMBA, Colorado Environmental Coalition and Colorado Ski Country USA for helping support the bill.
The reality is that gas taxes are an important source of funds but only pay a portion of our transportation spending. County- and municipality-owned roads make up the majority of roads in our state, but these governments can’t collect fuel taxes to pay for the roads. Instead, they collect use non-fuel taxes like sales tax, property tax, development fees, room taxes, special district taxes, etc. Taxes we all pay.
Detours Stop the Open Roads Act
It makes sense that each level of government (federal, state, county and municipal) has to use taxes to pay for transportation, and in Colorado only the federal and state levels may charge a gas tax. But even at the state level, fuel taxes don’t cut it. Over the last nine years, the state has spent more than $1.3 billion of general fund money on transportation*. General funds come from state income tax, state sales tax, gaming taxes, use taxes, etc. Please help inform your friends, family and colleagues on how we really pay for our transportation system. Together, we can bust the myth and gain equality on our roads. Keep rolling, Dan *Legislative
Counsel Report, 3/3/2009
T
he Colorado Open Roads Act (House Bill 1092), was designed to ensure that bicyclists have the ability to travel to jobs, schools, stores and attractions on public roads. The Colorado House Judiciary Committee voted against the bill, keeping in place the citywide ban on bicycling in Black Hawk. Bicycle Colorado would like to thank bill sponsors state Representative Andy Kerr (D) and Senator Greg Brophy (R) for their leadership on freedom to travel. We also thank the thousands of cyclists who contacted their elected leaders, attended the Colorado Bicycle Summit and contributed to this policy effort. We strongly believe that people should have the right to travel across our state by bicycle and will continue efforts to keep roads open to bicycles and end bike bans.

Q&A
Know your rights
Q A
By Brad Tucker, Attorney
Brad Tucker is an avid cyclist, member of Bicycle Colorado’s Board of Directors and an attorney with a specialty in bicycle liability and insurance issues with ColoBikeLaw.com. If you have questions concerning legal issues affecting cyclists, you can contact him by email at law@bicyclecolorado.org. Certain questions will be selected for publication in future issues.
I always ride safely, but what are some basic things to remember if I am in a crash with a car?
This is one of the most common questions I get. If you are unfortunate enough to find yourself the victim of a car versus bicycle collision, the list of things you should know far exceeds the space available with this column. There are a few basic things to try to remember.
ou have the right to ask law enforcement to investigate Y the accident. If you fall victim to another’s careless driving, reporting the accident will initiate an investigation process and create an official record of the occurrence. Failing to report the accident can have a serious impact on your ultimate ability to recover the damages you sustain. Law enforcement involvement will further assure that you are getting accurate insurance information from the at-fault party. That information will appear on the official Traffic Accident Report. If it is a hit-and-run collision, it is potentially even more important that you report the accident and initiate a law enforcement investigation. Even if the driver cannot be located, you can still pursue damages under your uninsured motorist coverage. In my practice, many cyclists try to delay or avoid medical attention. This is no time to be a hero. Get the treatment you need, and let the process play itself out. If you have health insurance, you will use that as your primary source of payment for treatment.
If witnesses offer to provide you with their contact information, definitely take them up on it. Get a business card or as much contact information as they are willing to provide. The scene of an accident is no time to argue fault with the other party or law enforcement. There is no obligation to even speak to the at-fault party about the collision, and there is no real advantage to doing so. If a law enforcement officer appears to be wrongfully holding you responsible for the collision, it is important that you state your version of how it occurred, but there is little to be gained by engaging the officer in an argument. Once you have received emergency treatment, photograph all visible injuries and damaged equipment. If your injuries are serious enough that you are immediately transported from the scene in an ambulance for emergency medical care, you have the right to file a statement as a supplement to the official Traffic Accident Report. This is often an important way to document your perspective of the collision and create an official record of that. Following these basic tips will get you going in the right direction. There is no question, however, that you would be wise to contact an experienced bicycle attorney to further protect your rights. Hopefully, you will never have to do so. It is undeniable that many will.

2011 Colorado Bicycle Summit Attracts Huge Crowd continued from Page 1 Tuesday, everyone met at the Capitol building to meet with state legislators and express the importance and the economic impact of bicycling in Colorado. The sheer number of bicycle advocates lining the hallways of the Capitol gave a striking visual to legislators about the importance of the bicycle issues.

Safe Routes to School Spring News
S
pring is upon us and, with it, Colorado kids are getting excited about the Safe Routes to School program coming to their schools. Bicycle Colorado’s education teams have a full spring schedule, working in 11 schools and teaching 5,000 students in Denver, Broomfield, Commerce City, Fort Collins, Littleton and Thornton.
Bicycle Colorado is also excited to form a new partnership with Park Hill Bike Depot for the Smiley Middle School After-School Bike Club — scheduled during April and May. The Bike Depot, a nonprofit community bike shop, will provide mechanical support and ride support for all participants. We are all gearing up for these great spring activities! If you have any questions or want more information about our Safe Routes to School program, contact Jenna Berman, education director, at 303-417-1544, ext. 13, or email jenna@BicycleColorado.org.
Representatives from local bike shops Bike parking was at a premium!
Bicycle Colorado educators have spent much of the winter creating Safe Routes maps for schools in Littleton, Broomfield and Commerce City. These maps will be used this spring for parents planning walking school buses and bicycle trains. The excitement of the students, combined with the user-friendly maps, should motivate parents to get more kids biking and walking to school.

Bicycle Colorado Annual Report 2009–2010 Building Sustainable Trails Thanks to an equipment grant from the Colorado State Park’s Recreational Trail Program, Bicycle Colorado acquired a new set of trail work tools to help with our extensive trail work in Bangs Canyon near Grand Junction. In addition, the Bureau of Land Management received American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funds to work with Bicycle Colorado on a trail system design in the Gunnison Gorge National Conservation Area. The trail plan was completed in spring 2010.
Last fiscal year–July 1, 2009, through June 30, 2010– was a busy and productive one for Bicycle Colorado as we continued to expand our educational programming and advocacy efforts throughout the state. Through the support of our members and donors, we were able to increase our impact on bicycling education, safety and legislation. Below are highlights from the fiscal year. Complete Streets in Colorado After stakeholder meetings and drafting language, the Colorado Department of Transportation’s Transportation Commission adopted a groundbreaking statewide bicycle and pedestrian policy, which directs that, “...the needs of bicyclists and pedestrians shall be included in the planning, design, and operation of transportation facilities, as a matter of routine…”
Safe Routes to School With a grant from the Oreg Foundation, Bicycle Colorado provided summer bicycle-safety education through an Adams County camp for homeless and at-risk youth. Bicycle Colorado’s education team also provided a special Safe Routes to School training for teachers and members of the Durango and La Plata communities. Safe Routes to School programs were also held at schools in Adams 12, Calhan, Commerce City, Denver and Fort Collins.
Share the Road Outreach and Education Bicycle Colorado partnered with bicycle event members to create a series of educational signs that illustrate safe bicycling behaviors to be displayed at bicycle events. In addition, Bicycle Colorado and BikeDenver teamed up to revise bicycle information in the Colorado Driver Handbook published by the Division of Motor Vehicles, resulting in clear information to motorists about how bicyclists use public roads and how to safely share the road. Adult Bicycle Commuter Education Our Adult Bicycle Commuter Services program picked up momentum this past fiscal year. We completed bikecommuter courses at the National Renewable Energy Labs in Golden and the Tri-County Health Department in Greenwood Village.

Open Roads for Bicycling When the town of Black Hawk announced it was banning bicycle traffic through town, Bicycle Colorado began a campaign to overturn it. In June 2010, more than 100 bicyclists joined together at the state capitol to show their support to keep roads open to bikes in Colorado and thousands more signed our online petition.
Legislative Successes Governor Bill Ritter signed the Safer Streets for Children Act, which added the state’s bicycle and pedestrian policy into law and made a children’s road-safety curriculum available for school district use. Bicycle Colorado also endorsed Senate Bill 204, which ensures that convictions of Careless Driving Resulting in Death include removing driving privileges.
