Advocating for biker's rights and safer cycling in Cobb County. Wednesday, August 6, 2008. Nah, nah, nah, nah. Nah, nah, nah, nah. Hey, hey, hey. Goodbye! Commission Chair Sam Olens, also voting for the anti-cycling ordinance, was not challenged. He seems to be the GOP's fair haired boy right now, and is probably untouchable. Barbara Hickey is an Smyrna etiquette school owner. Her website is here. She seems to be very active in the community, but not with any cycling organizations.

Bike Cobb: Hyde Farm Saved!

Advocating for biker's rights and safer cycling in Cobb County. Friday, June 6, 2008. According to the AJC. Find more Bike Rides in Marietta, Georgia. Naturally, there would be some resistance to such a bike path by non-cyclists. However, I think pointing out the benefits to families, the possibility of less cyclists on streets without bike lanes and paths, and the possibility of increased property values, can remove a lot of the resistance.

Advocating for biker's rights and safer cycling in Cobb County. Wednesday, August 6, 2008. Wow, some people. Last night we primaried Joe Thompson and gave him more time to spend with his family, as Bob Ott won the Republican runoff for the District 3 Commission seat. This is great for cyclists. We have a voice and should use it. Annette Kesting who voted for the ordinance was defeated in her primary runoff, but that had more to do with shooting herself in the foot than it did with any cyclist. Hopefully ...
