What defeat of Measure D means
North County off-road biking looks promising
by Ralph Fertig
Our Bicycle Coalition offers sincere gratitude to all those who worked hard over the past two years toward the passage of Measure D renewal. Disappointingly, it attained only 54% of the vote, 13% less than the required two-thirds. In the South Coast, it nearly attained the two-thirds, it was in the North County where it failed dramatically. Voters did pass five out of eleven similar California county transportation taxes. The only tax renewal that failed was in Santa Barbara County—possibly because it was an increase and voters failed to perceive a sufficient benefit. It’s difficult today to discern whether any transportation tax will now be passed in our county, whether in 2008 or 2010 or ever. I personally see three possibilities: • Return to the old 1989 Measure D half-cent tax that goes to roads and local governments. • Pursue a half-cent measure that includes some dedicated funding for transit and alternatives. • The county will be fragmented as each city passes its own tax for its transportation needs. At this time, I feel that the first and second would both be defeated in 2008, out of disappointment over what they fail to provide. As for fragmentation, that is exactly what just happened in San Luis Obispo County, where four cities passed their own taxes. If that occurs here, that will leave the unincorporated county residents with scant funds, and inter-community transit at risk. Whatever evolves, the Bicycle Coalition will work to assure that we are included at the table.
Santa Barbara’s Elings Park BMX track successfully hosts races for youth—we need other tracks in the county.
There are mountain biking events at Firestone and Chamberlin ranches near Los Olivos, and ongoing programs for BMX and off-road racing at Elings Park in Santa Barbara, but North County people need something permanent. They’re currently working to change that with three projects: • BMX track at the Elks Unocal Event Center east of Highway 101, north of Clark Road. • Mountain biking trails at the newly-purchased 1778-acre Las Flores Ranch property south of Clark Road east of Highway 101. • BMX track in the Buellton area to replace the Valley BMX that lost its land several years ago. Our young people especially need facilities nearer their homes where they can learn the joys of biking that will carry over into adulthood.

Don and Pam McMurray have maintained a web site called Your Guide to Bed, Breakfast and Biking since 1996. Their listing includes bed and breakfasts, inns, and guesthouses—presumably because hungry cyclists always take advantage of the free breakfasts, and possibly because the innkeepers may provide more personalized accommodation for those on bicycle. Their web site www.BBBiking.com offers searches for trails by state and trail name. There are two trails listed within Santa Barbara County: • Pacific Coast Bike Route that runs 1836 Quick Release • December 2006 • Page 2
miles from Canada to Mexico has a list of nearly 400 bed and breakfast establishments, 20 of which are within our county. • Foothill and North Goleta Bike Routes is the name they use although they really describe a string of interconnected South Coast routes. They list 17 bed and breakfast locations in our area. Overall, the Guide site now lists nearly 4000 lodging properties near 250 plus trails in thirty-eight states. If you have suggestions for the Guide, contact the McMurrays (who run a B&B in Utah) at info@BBBiking.com.
Pedro Nava heads Transportation Committee On November 7, Pedro Nava was reelected to the California Assembly’s 35th district by 62% of the voters. His district includes Santa Ynez Valley, the South Coast, and Ventura. We congratulate Nava on his return to office. Of special interest to bicyclists is that Nava is now the head of the Assembly Committee on Transportation. That important 11-member committee has jurisdiction over the California Highway Patrol and Transit Authority; and over the operation, licensing, registration, and drivers licenses for vehicles, aircraft, and vessels. If you have issues that concern our access and safety, contact Nava at 916-3192035 or assemblymember.nava@assembly.ca.gov.
Coalition asks Nava for greener DMV On November 22, our Bicycle Coalition send a letter to our Assemblyman Pedro Nava asking him to consider actions that would make the California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) more environmentally responsible. The suggestion was spurred by an article in the London Times about changes that their Driving Standards Agency was making. The November 5th article titled “The driving test that is preparing to go green” starts out: “Congratulations Miss Jones, you’ve passed your driving test—now get on your bike. Officials in Britain are planning to make the driving test eco-friendly by asking learners not just how to operate a car but whether they should be using one at all.” The DSA asks drivers to consider issues about the appropriateness of driving for any given trip, when to use air conditioning, whether a smaller vehicle would make sense for their trips, and how to increase mileage by driving more smoothly. Our letter to Nava notes that California has a history of environmental awareness and protection, and requests him to consider introducing greater awareness of energy consumption into DMV literature, examinations, and policies. We don’t know whether changes require legislative action or not, but we ask for changes to reduce our energy consumption and dependence on imported fossil fuels.
Coalition gives out bike lights
Payne & Boysel cases continue in December
Daylight savings time is gone, the days are shrinking, and nights are filling the chilling void. We are all facing more darkness, biking in the fading light, biking in the dark.
The case against asphalt truck driver Marcos Almaguer in the death of UCSB triathlete Kendra Payne was heard on October 20th, and continued until December 8th. The County’s District Attorney has filed a charge of misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter against Almaguer who has entered a plea of not guilty. Payne was run over by Almaguer last January 11th while on a bicycle training ride up Gibraltar Road above Santa Barbara. Assistant District Attorney Pat McKinley said that they are negotiating a settlement that may or may not be reached by December 8th. At that time, either a settlement will be formalized or a request for a trial will be entered. The hearing will take place at 8:30 AM, in Department 10 of the Superior Court, 118 East Figueroa Street, Santa Barbara. Separately, the District Attorney’s charge of misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter against motorist Ernesto Botello has been continued to December 12th. Botello hit and killed 12-year old Jake Boysel on September 6th as Jake was biking on Calle Real to La Colina Junior High School in Santa Barbara. At the arraignment on November 13th, Botello pleaded not guilty to the charges. If convicted, he could face up to a year in prison. On December 12th, a settlement agreement may be reached, or a decision to go to trial will be made. The hearing will take place at 8:30 AM, Department 10 of the Superior Court, 118 East Figueroa Street, Santa Barbara.
Manager Randy Baldwin at San Marcos Growers stands next to one of his co-workers bicycles.
To help community members who have to bike in the dark, our Bicycle Coalition is now distributing 200 lights to improve their safety. Thanks to a grant from the Goleta Valley Cycling Club, we have purchased white LED headlights to give to low-income South Coast workers who depend on their bicycles to get to their jobs. The first 20 lights were given to San Marcos Growers in the Goleta Valley where a third of their workers bike to their jobs. General manager Randy Baldwin says that worker safety is very important and they have a monthly meeting to discuss issues. He will pass out the lights along with a Spanish/English brochure that we gave him, describing basic bicyclist safety. Our wish is that all bicycle commuters have a safe and enjoyable journey, whether it’s by choice or necessity. Thanks to our partnering with the GVCC, we are making that happen.
Crossing 154 is safer Thanks to Caltrans and Supervisor Brooks Firestone for making the Edison Road crossing of Highway 154 safer. New stop signs will make it safer for bicyclists on Santa Ynez Valley road rides, not to mention motorists. New flashing lights will alert speeding 154 motorists about the new stop.
Tour plans for kids Our Bicycle Coaliiton is working with the Santa Barbara Conference and Visitor Bureau, and the City of Santa Barbara to craft a program for young people before the Amgen Tour of California stage start in Santa Barbara. The Local Organizing Committee (LOC) is welcoming ideas for events that will attract families to the waterfront for an hour or two before the stage begins its ride to Santa Clarita on February 24th. Suggestions so far are a bike races, a slow race (last person in wins), bike rodeo, chalk drawing, poster contest, and helmet sales. Our Bicycle Coalition will share a booth with Santa Barbara Car Free to promote responsible travel to the stage start. To offer ideas or volunteer, email Barney Berglund at barney_berglund@hotmail.com.
Bicycle Coalition December meeting location changed The Santa Barbara Bank & Trust has had to move our December 5th meeting to another room in their building due to scheduling changes. We will meet in the same office building at 1021 Anacapa, but now we will be in the second floor Conference Room. Ask the second floor receptionist where it is.
Bicyclists like their commutes to work Statistics Canada did a survey last year on how Canadian workers perceive their daily commute to work. It showed that only 8% of the people who bicycle commute dislike the trip, and 92% either like the ride, or are neutral about it.
While walking to work had a slightly larger percentage of commuters who liked the trip than those who bicycled, over twice as many pedestrians—19%—disliked their trip by foot. Less happy with their commutes were those who drove, those who took the bus or train, and least happy were those who combined driving with transit. The survey asked people what activities they like the best during their day. Surprisingly, 3% said that their commute to work was their favorite. Further analysis revealed that 19% of those who rode their bicycles to work reported that their commute was the most pleasant activity of their day. In contrast, this was true of just 2% of workers who drove to work. These results are from the report Like commuting? Workers’ perceptions of their daily commute by Martin Turcotte. The data are derived from Statistics Canada’s telephone General Social Survey of nearly 19,597 individuals aged 15 or above. Read a summary at www.statcan.ca/Daily/English/ 061107/d061107b.htm. Although this survey deals with Canadians, Americans very likely feel the same about their trips. Quick Release • December 2006 • Page 3
November Coalition meeting topics Our November 7th monthly Bicycle Coalition meeting was at noon at Santa Barbara Bank & Trust, attracting 15 people. We discussed these topics: • Passage of Measure D today may or may not happen, but if it fails, bicyclists will be great losers. • Charges filed in the death of 12-year old Jake Boysel were discussed. An arraignment will occur on November 13th. • Owen Dell from the Fossil-Free Landscaping Group described their proposed public garden with bike facilities near the railroad station. Next steps were suggested. • Ralph Fertig described additional funding for UCSB bike facilities through the student BIKES committee. • Dru van Hengel invites couples to participate in a Street Skills class November 16-18. • Kirby Jones from England showed pictures and described good and poor bicycling conditions around Exeter. • Vie Obern brought apple pies to share with us, plus talk about trails and pass out copies of her Santa Barbara County Trails newsletter. She thanked the biker who spent hours helping her publish the latest issue.

Bicyclists use the ramp from the street level to access underground bike parking for 3500 bicycles in Münster, Germany.
Here’s an example of the huge demand for bike parking in Amsterdam. The ferry in the foreground is free and designed so bikes and motor scooters can roll on and off. Each trip is filled with bicyclists crossing this short passage.
Amsterdam, Netherlands: We all know that Amsterdam is teeming with bicycles, but many don’t know that bike parking and theft are big problems that city officials and bike planners are still working to manage. We visited a number of facilities Quick Release • December 2006 • Page 4
Münster, Germany: Although the Westfalia region of Germany has over fifty Radstations (Bikestation in German), the facility in Münster is by far the largest and most impressive. It holds up to 3500 bikes and is located directly adjacent to the main train station. A bike specific ramp leads down to the underground bike parking area and the building’s architecture is reminiscent of the Louvre in Paris. There is a full-scale bike shop, and rental bikes are available. I plan to put together a slide-show of photos from my trip, so stay tuned if you are interested in hearing more about my bicycle parking adventures in Europe.
Upcoming bike meetings and events
“Conference Bike” offers 7-person fun
Although December is usually a quiet month for meetings, we know that more will be added to the following as dates approach. Check our web site for frequent updates at www.sbbike.org/meet/meet.html.
The idea of having a Street Skills class that encouraged couples to enroll seemed good, but the proposed classes in September and November unfortunately both failed to attract enough people to warrant holding them. We will be offering no class in December, but watch for another offering in January.

ATOC needs volunteers If you want a front-row view of the Amgen Tour of California next February, consider volunteering for either the Solvang or Santa Barbara stages; apparently you cannot sign up for more than one stage. Sign up online and choose what position you prefer—from course marshal, hospitality host, security, media relations or medical support. To volunteer, go to www.amgentourofcalifornia.com. Keep in mind, however, that if you wish to help with our Santa Barbara pre-stage events, there may be a conflict of time.
Street Skills class in January
New 3-foot passing law now in Florida Riders confer while cruising by the UCSB Lagoon on November 17th.
Eric Staller brought his Conference Bike through Santa Barbara county in mid-November, offering free rides around UCSB and Isla Vista. The ingenious machine actually has three cushy wheels, one round handlebar, and bike seats for seven people who can pedal or slack off as they choose. Bicycle Coalition members Don Lubach, Ralph Fertig and Harry Nelson enjoyed rides around the area, joined by others who hopped on and off along the way. Nelson wrote, “We had a great time on the Conference Bike, built by Eric Staller an American Ex-pat who lives in Amsterdam. He is mostly an artist interested in creating new experiences for groups of people.” About 100 have been sold to groups that include retirement home residents, blind people, theme parks, and corporations seeking teambuilding experiences. Nelson envisions further uses, “I’m thinking of getting one to use as a mobile speed dating platform in IV.” You can read about the crazy vehicle at www.conferencebike.com. You can buy the German-made machines from Staller if you wish to have more fun with friends.
Pedro Nava’s proposed three-foot minimum passing distance for California bicyclists failed in committee earlier this year. Other states continue to pass such laws however, Florida being the latest. Drivers of vehicle overtaking a bicyclist must pass by at least three feet. Laws already exist in Minnesota, Arizona, Wisconsin, Louisiana, and Utah. Nava is considering another try.
