Boise Awarded SILVER Bicycle Friendly Community. Next stop, GOLD
Jimmy Hallyburton
IT OFFICIAL, BOISE IS BICYCLE FRIENDLY...
Sure, I was hoping for Gold, but considering this was the first time Boise has ever applied, Silver is a pretty great place to start.
So now it's time to get to work, and if you take a look at the report card below, we've got a lot to do.
If we work hard (which we will), if we make changes (which we will), if we #RideOnBoise (which we will), then we'll be ready for Gold in 2016. Yes, even though the designation last for 4 years, you can reapply at anytime.
As early suggested, let's thank the Mayor for helping make Boise a Silver Bicycle Friendly Community. Let's ask him to announce this Bicycle Friendly designation during his State of the City Address, as well as challenge his Bicycle Advisory Committer to bring Boise to Gold in 2016 and Platinum by 2018.

I'm on that committee and I'm up for the challenge.
#RideOnBoise!
