MassBikers,

The City of Boston is trying to gather information on where people bike. This is a chance for us give the city real input that will go towards real change. Below are a message from the City and instructions for tracking your bike routes to, from, and within Boston. They're particularly interested in finding families and recreational cyclists.

NOTE: Any information you submit for this survey is NOT secure. You may use a pseudonym and/or omit your email address if you wish, but make sure you use the same pseudonym for every route you enter.

"Dear Boston Area Cycling Friends,

"We are looking at the array of programs and services available for cyclists in Boston and we want your input. We are hoping to gather information on cycling patterns to use as a guide when updating and evaluating cycling routes, lanes, rack disbursements, etc. We hope you will help us gather information on cycling behavior in Boston by tracking your rides through Boston.

"We invite everyone who rides a bicycle within or to/from Boston to participate including commuters, racers, recreational riders, families, and even people who exercise once a year… All ages are welcome.

"Participation takes just a few minutes. We will ask you to go on-line and track an actual day of riding for us using a website we have created. We want you to record exactly where you biked on this given ride.

"If you have passed through Boston anytime on a ride today, please start today. Otherwise, please record the very next day that you pass through Boston on a ride. We want to see both weekend and weekday activity. And, feel free to record multiple days of riding. You do not have to contact us to participate. Just follow the directions below.
