Things to “Peak” Your Interest: Three feet safe passing laws

What’s a three feet safe passing law? Most states in the U.S. have them (only 11 states are without). The most common crash that kills a person bicycling is when a person driving hits them from behind. A state law that requires a defined passing distance makes it clear that the person driving is responsible for preventing this crash type. Thanks League of American Bicyclists for the data & graphic!

Things to “Peak” Your Interest: Solar e-bike stations!

A recent partnership in Colorado between We-Cycle & Skyhook Solar has launched two off-the-grid, solar-powered charging stations for electric bicycles. Around the country, e-bikes are incredibly popular in the bike share industry, used for about five times as many rides as classic pedal bikes.

Daniel Delano, president and CEO of Skyhook Solar , says that the goal from day one was to design and engineer a solar station that was attractive, something that would be welcome on both city streets or a trailhead in the backcountry. The resulting stations, located at Aspen Valley Hospital and a Bus Rapid Transit stop in Basalt, are elegant in their simplicity, with a nine foot canopy that obscures the solar panels and ensures that storefronts or mountain views remain unobstructed.

Thanks We-Cycle & Skyhook Solar for the innovative work!

A Colorado pilot program run by We-Cycle and SkyHook Solar is positioning bike share as an even more potent tool in the fight against climate change.
