Abq cyclists SEEN
With more than 200 cyclists riding together on Central and other major streets in Albuquerque Sunday, Albuquerque drivers are hopefully more aware that we need to be SEEN. BikeABQ’s Can You See Us NOW? ride was a major success and it received major media attention.

Thanks to efforts from NMDOT, Las Cruces and El Paso, the pilot program for a bus commuter line between the two cities will begin August 31st. Another line will cover the 25 miles to White Sands Missle Range.
One-way tickets will be only $3 and pick up points include downtown Las Cruces, NMSU, Anthony and downtown El Paso. Even thought the program only runs durning the weekdays and within a three hour window during the morning and evening hours, it is a start. Hopefully the foundation for improving regional transit systems.
With this new connection, anyone can load their bike in downtown or NMSU and meet up with buddies anymore in EP!
enjoy my friends!

A city without cars… Awesome!
One step closer to Complete Streets!
All of us that hate how poorly designed our area commuters lanes and bike paths are can now rejoice! On Monday June 15th, the Las Cruces City Council adopted Resolution #09-301 which is the Complete Streets Guiding Principles “so that transportation improvements are planned, funded, designed, constructed, operated, and maintained to integrate walking, bicycling, transit, and motor vehicle use while promoting safe and efficient operations for all users.”
The County Government is now up next to incorporated these guidelines. The issue will go before the Board of Commissioners sometime in the near future. Thanks to Andy Hume from the city’s planning department for all his efforts and assistance to the local cycling community.
