https://www.kazu.org/kazu-news/2026-08-11/e-bike-popularity-pushes-officials-to-figure-out-how-to-keep-everyone-safe “There's never a traffic jam on the recreation trail,” Koesel said. !?! We appreciate his intent, and beg to differ. Our photo posted here is from 2010 — scroll to end of https://bikemonterey.org/tips-for-tourists/for-serious-cyclers, and that section of trail gets far more congested now. That’s another reason we need far more such bikeways—i.e., Class 1 as well as Class 4 with a physical barrier (protection from cars).

"'In an ideal world, we would have bike lanes with a physical barrier everywhere. That’s what’s needed. The reason more people don’t bike is primarily the fear of cars, and you can’t blame them.'”
—Bicycling Monterey’s founder, in cover story, "Can advocates make local streets safer for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers?"

Excerpts from #SalinasValleyNow story by Erik Chalhoub, "Más jóvenes se están sumando al ciclismo de montaña, y las oportunidades para hacerlo están creciendo a nivel local.” / "More young people are hopping onto mountain bikes—and the opportunities to do so are growing locally.”
“Riding bikes can increase focus, improve mood and improve both physical and mental health. It’s important to get kids to spend more time in nature.”
…
Asst coach with #Salinas High School Cowboys Mountain Bike Team, points to tight-knit community of #MountainBiking community, especially on display during #FortOrd race.“It’s very supportive. Everybody cheers for everybody else.”
For kids who don’t have a bike, no problem—they’ll be given one for the race.
…
“It opens the door for kids who may not have a group, but they’ll find a group within the team.”
…
“They spoke so positively and energetically about being out there with friends in nature and away from screens.” -

Today a local man whose family has one Rad bike and whose other bicycles are, to his great satisfaction, Tern bikes, brought this Rad news to our attention. He’s bummed they don’t have ALL Terns. https://www.bicycleretailer.com/industry-news/2026/05/12/woman-files-wrongful-death-suit-against-rad-power-bikes-after-fire-kills
That Rad news is another reason we’re grateful that two extraordinary bike industry leaders — Larry Pizzi and Dale Aguas — steered us in the right direction. Years ago Larry told us about Bosch batteries; and in 2024, Dale of @ternbicycles (which use Bosch batteries) pointed us to a #TernBicycles model very well suited to our needs, the #TernNBD. #Monterey Bay #LocalBikeShop Current eBikes assembled our Tern NBD P8i, and also provides 24 months of unlimited Standard Tune-ups + ongoing support and care.
We’re so glad to have the quality of Bosch and Tern, and also very happy with Current’s service. https://sfba.social/@bikemonterey/116644390356044137

Our 17-yr-old ride companion tonight was in full agreement: We are fortunate to have this excellent car-free coastal trail—AND we need such infrastructure in neighborhoods all over our county!

Art created by Monterey County native John Cerney graces landscapes and buildings in Calgary, Alberta and many U.S. states, including Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, and Wyoming.
A personal favorite is this one in Sand City, California—because the woman at the left is our dear friend Lila Daoud! Cerney’s fellow artist Olia Polovneff painted Lila and the little baseball player for this scene.
We’ve photographed some Cerney art while #biking #Monterey County, e.g., see our old Giant hybrid by one in our Youth Center post https://bikemonterey.org/probation-dept-youth-center-bike-education.html; another in our dog-lovers post https://bikemonterey.org/tips-for-dog-lovers-biking-monterey-county-and-elsewhere.html and bike rentals pg https://bikemonterey.org/tips-for-tourists/bicycle-rentals-guided-tours.

We’ve never ordered anything from #Amazon (no shade to those who have no other option). We prefer to #BuyLocal, and we lament the closure of many local stores (e.g., we remember when there were 4 locally owned office supply stores nearby—now 0). Most of us are compelled to shop big box stores now.
A local #Target store was opened for years before we succumbed to occasional Target purchases. We do appreciate their drive-up / bike-up option to pick up our purchases—no need to enter the store!
We’re also grateful that a friend who no longer used these Ortlieb panniers gave them to us on “permanent loan."
