Are you frustrated with your bicycle commute? Is there a location sorely in need of bicycling parking? Are you discouraged by even the idea of bicycling in Miami? Do you want to know what the City and County are doing to become more bicycle-friendly?
If you answered yes to any of those questions, by all means come out on June 3rd or June 7 and raise your voice!
Two public workshops are being organized for early June to help update Miami-Dade County’s 2001 bicycle and pedestrian plans. You’ll find maps and experts on hand to inform you about the paths and other facilities already in place or in various stages of design. The planners want public input, so mark one of these dates and make your own arrangements to be there:
* June 3, 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Miami City Hall in Coconut Grove.
* June 7, 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the South Dade Regional Library, 10750 SW 211th St.
Thanks to Spokes n’ Folks for the tip.

i live in missoula montana, which is a very biker friendly city. they have bike lanes on many of the roads just like the picture above. however if you ride a bike you have to ride on the road, riding on sidewalks is illeagal. You also need lights and offcourse you have to signal when you turn. I sold my car about 6 months ago and now i bike 3 miles to and from work everyday. I have never fealt better and as a result i am in the best shape of my life. I just wish i would have done it sooner

In the state of Florida you are allowed to use sidewalks as there are so few bike lanes. That and no one else uses sidewalks might as well get some use out of them.

I'm a very strong advocate in board meetings and any arrangements my community has, even if it seems a little or big problem, attending them does make a difference! this can only be a good thing, I'm happy that there are steps that could make a huge improvement.
Although Im in CA, I never take for granted the power that (norCal) has in public hearings and the much better transportation, as an outcome (think BART without bike access... and Muni buses with no bike racks) it all has happened thru public - city hearings.
