The US Embassy in Madrid hosted (apparently) the largest party in US embassy history. There were 3000 attendees, including myself, and some very talented musicians. Here’s the pics & vids:Â https://goo.gl/photos/qBQnyuMay1XKo4oH9.

Mapmaking
I’m making maps to add to a report we’re developing for the University of Denver Sustainability Council. The report recommends several transit improvements for the University of Denver campus, such as a new cycle track, bike/pedestrian signage, painted bike boxes, bike fixtations, curb cuts, green sharrow lanes, and new red crosswalks. You can read the report here: DU Land Use Transit Recommendation.

DU: A Bicycle Friendly University
DU: A Bicycle Friendly University
You probably didn’t know this, but a few months ago the University of Denver Transit Committee put in overtime hours in an effort to *officially* become designated as a Bicycle Friendly University (BFU).  We spent many days documenting the details of DU’s transportation infrastructure, and distilling them into clear and precise wording inside our very first application to the BFU Program.
Today that effort paid off. Â This morning the League of American Bicyclist named the University of Denver, along with fifteen other universities, as a Bicycle Friendly University (see announcement here).
We should be clear that there are four levels of awards in the BFU program, and DU earned the lowest level of bike friendliness (bronze). Â Still, we are on the map of only 44 universities that share this designation, and we’re proud of it!
The next step: Silver, Gold, and/or Platinum. So how do we improve our bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure? You can find out, and share your ideas at the next DU Transit Committee meeting, which will be held on Monday October 29th at 3pm at the DU Center for Sustainability (JMAC 142). We hope to see you there!
New Sharrows!
DU Sharrow Install
The DU area is getting a lot of attention lately with the upcoming Presidential Debates. Â If you didn’t know, the University of Denver will host the first debate of the 2012 election season, when President Barack Obama and Governor Mitt Romney will battle for control of the nation on October 3, 2012.
One of the benefits of being a presidential debate-hosting university is that the city comes through and re-surfaces your roads! The only problem is that our highly-cherished sharrows were removed with the old pavement.
We were quick to alert the City that we wanted our sharrows back, and voila! New Sharrows! Â Now we need to convince them to sharrow all the streets adjoining campus…
Denver: Bike to Work Tomorrow!

Fellow Denverites: Tomorrow (June 27, 2012) is Bike to Work Day!
This is the one day (among others) that you should feel compelled to pull your bike out of the garage, pump up the tires, grease the chain, and pedal your way to work!
There will be several breakfast and bike home stations located throughout the city (See Full Map Here), one of which will be here on the University of Denver’s Driscoll Lawn.  Breakfast Stations will be open 6:30-9am, Bike Home Stations will be open 4:30-6pm.
You can learn more about Bike to Work Day from our wonderful local advocacy
organizations: Bicycle Colorado, DRCOG, and (our favorite) Transportation Solutions.

You should also support Bike Denver at the annual Bike From Work Bash, which is held at  15th & Little Raven on June 27th, 5-9pm.  There will be Free Beer, Free Music, and all-around good fun with Denver’s best cyclists and bicycle advocates.  So hop on your old two-wheeler and enjoy bike to work day! (Then rinse, and repeat!)
