As bike commuters and recreational cyclists\, we know cycling is fun\, good for our health\, and good for the environment. Cycling can also play a ke y role in regaining health after an injury. On her blog you'll find stori es\, photos\, and experiences that will educate and inspire. The ride beg ins April 14 in Santa Monica CA\, and ends 17 days later in Amarillo TX. Training rides have already started\, so check out the link below! Elaine is looking for folks to get involved by joining her on training rides\, accompanying her on the way to Santa Monica\, learning more\, or donating . However you want to get involved would make her day. *Head to her blog: *\n\nhttp://route66ajourney.blogspot.com [1]\n\nAs Elaine\, an SVBC member \, points out:\n\n * * The ride is not just symbolic\; it is also cognitiv e rehabilitation for a brain injury. New studies show that strenuous exer cise helps brain injury patients recover\, by increasing blood flow to th e brain and by stimulating brain stem cells to regenerate. * * It is not primarily a charity ride - PAC Tour Route 66 is interesting in its own r ight. * * Many traumatic brain injury patients also have post-traumatic s tress disorder (PTSD)\, and cycling is the only aerobic exercise that see ms to help PTSD symptoms. Several cycling programs for veterans address t his.\n\nSaturday\, April 14 - 8:00AMLocation: \n\n Santa Monica CA Unite d States\n\n\n See map: Google Maps [2]\, Yahoo!

The project is identified as a top priority in the City's 2011 Bicycle Transportation P lan (and in the 2012 Ravenswood City School District Safe Routes to Schoo l Report)\, and is funded by a grant from the San Mateo County Transporta tion Authority. Funding for full design and construction of the facility has not yet been identified. Final design of the bridge structure will ha ve to be reviewed and approved by the California Department of Transporta tion (Caltrans) in addition to the East Palo Alto City Council and commis sions.\n\nExisting non-motorized access across Highway 101 is provided sol ely by a narrow sidewalk on the north side of University Avenue and limit ed bicycle facilities shared with heavy traffic. For more in-depth covera ge of the current conditions on the University Ave bridge\, and a preview of alignments and designs under consideration for the proposed overcross ing\, see recent articles by Bryan Goebel at Streetsblog SF: :http://sf. streetsblog.org/2012/11/05/east-palo-alto-begins-design-proces...
