Coalition pursues Santa Ynez TrailThe ranchers and property owners along theSanta Ynez River don’t want people on bicyclesnear their land, and up to now, they’ve been theonly ones to voice an opinion on a proposedSanta Ynez River Trail. We’re changing that.

At our March 2nd Bicycle Coalition meeting,Santa Barbara County planner Stephen Petersonupdated us on the proposed trail that would runbetween Buellton and Highway 154, with a pos-sible extension to Cachuma Lake. The trail is oneof many, existing and proposed, in the Santa YnezValley Community Plan. The Community Plan isstill under development, and there are upcomingopportunities this spring to ensure that trailscontinue to be included, in spite of opposition.

Currently, the Santa Ynez Valley has off-roadbiking in Los Padres National Forest, and on-road cycling on the numerous connecting ruralroads. The Santa Ynez River Trail would offernew commute opportunities by connecting thecities of Buellton and Solvang. East of Solvang, itwould have several spur trails or paths to resi-dential areas south of Highway 246, and thehighly-desirable connection to Cachuma Lake willprovide access to camping and recreation.

The entire Santa Ynez Valley will benefit froma Buellton-to-Cachuma trail because recreationalhikers, bicyclists and equestrians will be attractedfrom all over California and beyond. Similar trailshave seen boosts in their local economies fromthose who come just for the trails, and fromthose who choose to add an extra day to theirstay. Local hotels and restaurants always profit

After researching what other bus agencies around thecountry do to accommodate bicyclists on their buses, Bi-cycle Coalition president Ralph Fertig spoke before the

MTD Board of Di-rectors on March2nd. The article“How to get morebikes on MTDbuses,” publishedin last month’sQuick Release, wasdistributed.

Timing could nothave been better.Steve Holm, MTDacting materialsmanager said that

QUICK MOVE. Fast to deploy the 3-bikebus racks shown here, the San LuisObispo Regional TransportationAuthority has replaced 2-bike ones.

Coalition asks MTD for more bicycle support2-bike Sportworks racks had been orderedfor 26 new buses to be delivered by sum-mer. The Sportworks 2-bike racks are cur-rently on all 40-foot MTD buses. However,starting last December, Sportworks starteddelivering a new 3-bike version. So theMTD immediately ordered one of the newracks to test on its buses. If the 3-bike racksdon’t obstruct the drivers’ views, they willprobably be ordered instead.

While the possibility of bikes inside thebuses is subject to insurance constraints,an increase of bike-carrying capacity by50% would be a major improvement. Wethank the MTD for their timely action, andlook forward to an increase in multi-modaltransportation in their area of coverage.

Bicycle Education is anew focus for us

Word from our BoardFor many of usreading thisnewsletter, theconcepts of ve-hicular cyclingare already fa-miliar. But forthe generalpublic, there isa great deal ofmisinformationabout how andwhere to ride abicycle. Wehave all seen the bicyclist riding on thesidewalk or against traffic, with no helmetor light. We think, “What are they doing?”

In reality, many of these riders believethey are riding safely. Don’t they under-stand that their position and speed makethem invisible to others, endangeringthemselves, other bicyclists and pedestri-ans? The Santa Barbara Bicycle Coalition,along with many other public and privateentities, such as COAST, the City of SantaBarbara and SBCAG Traffic Solutions, areworking to reduce bicycle-related collisionsthrough bicycle education campaigns.

The League of American Bicyclists headsa campaign to educate bicyclists and motor-ists about the safest ways to “drive yourbicycle.” In 2002 and 2003, the Santa Bar-bara Bicycle Coalition was able to pay forover 15 Santa Barbara residents to becomeLeague Cycling Instructors (LCIs), thanksto a Safe Routes to School grant. These in-structors agreed to donate time to teach bi-cycle education to others in our community.

Participating instructors have alreadytaught children through bike rodeos, in-structed adults at several Bike Commuteclasses during Bike Week 2003, andtrained over 75 City of Santa Barbara em-ployees with a 2 hour “Basic Street Skills”course enabling them to use the City’s newfleet of town bicycles. Participating instruc-tors have also taught 3 complete “Road I”courses—a full day of bicycle instruction,including 2-3 hours of on-road instruction.LCIs are now gearing up to instruct childrenat elementary schools in Santa Barbara andGoleta and will again offer commute classesas part of Bike Week 2004. Contact me tofind out how you can become involved:961-8919 or [email protected] .

Bike routes changingin UCSB’s plans

UCSB is making long-range plans forhousing and transportation. They intendto house 2900-4000 additional students,staff, and faculty within the next 20 years.Housing will be on campus land, andpeople on bike, foot, bus and car will haveto be redirected.

Recent UCSB planning efforts on March16-18th involved housing and transporta-tion consultants. Coalition president RalphFertig met with Ian Lockwood, a seniortransportation engineer from consultantsGlatting Jackson in Florida. Lockwood isadmirably car-free, getting around by footand bike.

Plans call for increased circulation be-tween Isla Vista and USCB campus. In-stead of concentrating cars on El Colegioand bikes on the Pardall Corridor, bothwould be distributed over more sharedroads and paths. Lockwood wants to use awhole toolbox of traffic calming tech-niques to slow motorists on roads wherebicyclists will be present. Such a newroadway could have:• brick road surface• continuous concrete bikelanes• storm drains set into the curb• overarching trees• conspicuous, raised crosswalks and

bikepath crossings.

Lockwood envisions greater integration ofUCSB’s practice of putting bicyclists onpaths and IV’s practice of putting them onstreets, so the transition from one to an-other will be less abrupt. Success of thesechanges depends on facility design, howmany people use which facility at whatspeeds, and user awareness.

The latest housing/transportation ideaswill probably be presented to the Isla VistaPAC/GPAC committee in May, and dis-cussed in public then and afterwards.

CALMING THE CARS. UCSB’s transportationconsultant Ian Lockwood wants a moredistributed campus circulation plan.


SB City projects—finished, under construction, and forthcoming

The City of Santa Barbara has been busy. One recently completedproject is on Calle Puerto Vallarta next to the DoubleTree hotel(left photo). This is the major connection between the Beachwaypath and Eastside residences. Our thanks to City Transportationworkers Rob Dayton and Dru van Hengel for striping bikelaneson that section, and replacing in-road sensors.

Currently under construction and scheduled for completion inMay are Shoreline Drive changes (center photo). This project hasbeen coming for years. It consists of a new bikepath between

Leadbetter Beach and Shoreline Park, a wider sidewalk, and atwo-lane roadway with a bikelane on the uphill side. There aresome concerns about no bikelane on the downhill side of the road,but it will likely be all right.

Even longer in planning, funding has finally come through forthe Mission Street undercrossing of Highway 101 (right photo). Itreceived recent federal Transportation Enhancement dollars tocomplete funding of the project that will increase bicyclist and pe-destrian safety along that busy, but important bikeway link.

A group of Mexican Mixtec farmworkers,representing the 8000 Mixtecs working inthe Santa Maria Valley fields, spoke to theSBCAG Board on February 19 and askedfor help getting to and from work.

What the workers were asking for wasbus or van service, but we know that manyof them bike to the fields, and could usesafer conditions. So Bicycle Coalition presi-dent Ralph Fertig sent SBCAG Board mem-bers letters suggesting how they couldimprove biking conditions. A similar letterwas sent to the Santa Maria Times, where itwas published on March 10th.

We wrote, “Many low income wage-

Mayor talks bicyclingOn March 4, Santa Barbara Mayor MartyBlum talked about bicycling success in ourcity. She was speaking at the InternationalSymposium of Bicycle Friendly Communi-ties in Washington DC where she joined 24other mayors and staff for the symposium.

Following a welcome from WashingtonMayor Tony Williams and former Bogata,Columbia Mayor Enrique Penalosa, MayorBlum spoke of what the City has done:• Hired a mobility coordinator• Sponsored Bike to Work/School Days• Put police officers on bikes• Sponsored a Santa Barbara Car Free

program for tourists• Supported bike transportation in the Air

Pollution Control District clean air plan• Crafted neighborhood transportation plans• Designed safe routes to schools.We have posted Mayor Blum’s speechonline at: www.sbbike.org/docs/Blum.pdf

That’s not all. What’s coming here onJune 3 is the Mayors’ Ride for the NationalBicycle Greenway (NBG) movement. Themovement is pursuing a nationwide net-work of interconnected bike roads andpathways. Relay teams of NBG cyclists willmove across America to collect supportfrom the leaders, eventually converging onChicago on July 30 for the Third AnnualNBG Bike Fest. Details about the NBG areat: www.NationalBicycleGreenway.com/.

A week of exciting bike activities is heading our way. Markyour calendars with these main event dates:

• Bike Week Kick-Off, May 14• Children’s Festival, May 15• Bike to School Day, May 18• Bike to Work Day, May 19.

New this year, the Kick-Off evening event will feature actorand world cyclist Willie Weir (check out www.willieweir.com),dinner, and awards. Art this year by Loren Allen, shownat right, will appear on T-shirts and posters, which will befor sale. Goleta will have numerous morning stations forBike to Work Day around the area instead of one noon lo-cation this year. Tune up your bikes & get ready to crank!

Bike Week’s coming May 15-23

Coalition supports biking farmworkersearners would continue to bicycle to workeven if buses or vans were available be-cause bicycling is likely to be cheaper, moredirect, and often faster than a bus or van.We believe that bicycling to work is a goodidea for many reasons, regardless of income,and there is a need to make conditionssafer for those who want to—or must—biketo work.”

We recommended paved roadway shoul-ders that would separate from traffic not onlyfarm workers, but also disabled motorists,farm machinery operators, and law en-forcement officials. No response so far, butevery bicycling idea out there helps us all.

Corridor study mustinclude bicycling

Is bicycling a means of reducing traffic con-gestion within the South Coast? We believeso and therefore request that facilities andprograms for people who bicycle now—andthose who will bicycle if given better condi-tions to do so—should be an outcome com-ponent of the 101 In Motion process.

101 In Motion (formerly “101 Implementa-tion Plan”) is a long-term action plan to re-duce traffic congestion within a 5-milewide swath along the 27-mile corridor be-tween Winchester Canyon and the VenturaCounty line. It’s not about one road, it’sabout the impact of congestion on nearlyevery South Coast highway, road and street.

There were three public meetings betweenMarch 9th-16th. If the two South Coastones are any indication of public sentimentin general, people favored two actionsabove 13 others:• Expand transportation choices like bus,

bike, rail• Reduce travel demand.The consultant team stressed that “no onesolution will solve the problem. The 101 InMotion action plan will be made up of apackage of solutions.” Widening the free-way will not provide a long-term solution.

The Bicycle Coalition’s Ralph Fertigspoke of two important components that hefelt should be included:• A South Coast “rail with trail” bikepath

along the Union Pacific Railroad.• Safe bike access and secure parking at all

rail stations of any future commuter railservice.

The process over the next year consists ofcrafting many “alternative packages” andwinnowing them down to one final list oflong and short-term measures. There willbe other opportunities to express youropinions on the options. To track this im-portant process, go to www.101inmotion.comand follow future issues of Quick Release.

People read display information and talk withconsultants at the Goleta public meeting of 101In Motion process.

UCSB Triathlon groupadds cycling

What happens when you add cycling to abiathlon of swimming and running? Youget a highly successful triathlon! That’swhat the UCSB Triathlon Team discoveredon March 7th.

UCSB Team members Matt Hirscheyand J. Ritterbeck organized the event andfound out that instead of 25-30 participantstypical of their former “Splash n’ Dash,” theyhad nearly 200 for a full triathlon. And in-stead of raising a few hundred dollars, theyraised a couple of thousand for their team.

The new money allowed them to buybike racks for the transition area. And withfunds from future events, they will be able,through their “Start Tri-ing Program,” tohelp students who may not have the equip-ment and money to participate in triathlons.

Team president Ritterbeck says, “We arelooking forward to hosting the event againnext year and growing it into one of the topearly season races in the region.”


Coalition supportsCity College students

TALK BICYCLING. Bicycle Coalition Boardmember Jim Marshall chats with a student.

On March 17th, the Bicycle Coalition joinedother local organizations in a Safe SpringBreak Fair. It was organized by the SantaBarbara City College’s Project HOPE (Help-ing Others through Peer Education), agroup of student volunteers who educateother students on healthier lifestyle choices.

Our booth, located on a grassy knoll over-looking the Pacific Ocean, was staffed byJim Marshall and Ralph Fertig. Our mis-sion was two fold: tell students about bikerides that they could download from ourweb site or that they could create for them-selves from County Bike Maps; and tellthem about commuting to school by bikeinstead of car. Many students came by say-ing that they already biked to classes (in-cluding one who biked in from Solvangthat morning in two hours). Others tookCounty bike maps, Santa Barbara Car Freemaps and information, and a flyer thatlisted Bicycle Coalition web site addresseswith useful bicycling information.

To learn more about Project HOPE, con-tact student coordinator Linsay Sawzak byphone at 965-0581 x3435, or by email [email protected].

by Ralph Fertig“It was rust colored andhad training wheels,”remembers MattDobberteen of his firstbicycle back in Norman,Oklahoma. He also re-calls his first tumblefrom it, but that didn’tdeter him from bikingeverywhere as he grewup. That includes get-ting his trombone toand from schoolstrapped to his 10-speed bike.

Temporarily luredaway from bicycles bythe automobile in highschool, Matt returned tothem when he moved to Santa Barbara forenvironmental and law studies at UCSB.After graduation, he worked for the IslaVista Park Board, the County Parks Depart-ment, and then Santa Barbara County Plan-ning. He credits his nurturing there to DanGira, Alissa Hummer, and John Patton.

Today, Matt is Alternative Transporta-tion Coordinator for Santa Barbara County'sPublic Works Department, a position hemoved into last August. There, he shareswork with Wilson Hubbell—Matt concen-trates on bus systems and the 101 In Mo-tion process, while Wilson works onbicycling and safe routes to school issues.But that doesn't keep Matt from biking to

Matt and bicycling—a comfortable fitwork most days,sportily dressed onemight add, in tie andjacket as he pedalsalong.

The Santa Barbaraarea is fine for bicy-cling, Matt observes;however increasingmotorized traffic is aconcern. Matt feelsthat cars are appropri-ate for many trips,but inappropriate forothers where walking,bicycling and taking abus are better choices.He is especially im-pressed with the suc-cesses that SBCAG’s

Traffic Solutions continues to make in pro-moting alternatives to driving.

In Matt’s opinion, two current and up-coming processes are ones that we shouldbe involved with: the 101 In Motion studythat will determine the best ways to de-crease South Coast traffic congestion overcoming decades; and reauthorization of thecountywide Measure D, the half-cent trans-portation sales tax that is up for renewal in2009. They both can help bicycling.

Matt envisions our future where smarteconomic development is possible, andpeople will have—and use—appropriatetransportation to get around. Thanks, Matt,we’re delighted to have you on board.

NO LYCRA IN SIGHT. Matt Dobberteen bikecommutes to work nattily dressed, with hishelmet on his head.

At the Bicycle Coalition Board meeting, andthen at our general meeting March 2nd, wediscussed Goleta Valley Cycling Club’s offerto share work and profits from their PeoplePowered Ride. There were reservations, notbecause of the Club or its members, but be-cause of a concern that Bicycle Coalition

Delayed partnering with GVCCmembers might not volunteer in sufficientnumbers to meet GVCC expectations.

Bicycle Coalition members’ feelings weremixed, and it was finally decided that Bi-cycle Coalition individuals will be encour-aged to help out before and during the ride,and we’ll see how it goes from there.
