      Fun = Bicicle Shanties + CX Nationals in Verona, Jan. 9-13

      Posted on December 18, 2012
      by Dave Schlabowske, Deputy Director

      A couple of days ago, Shea, the Entertainment Coordinator (and my favorite Milwaukee superhero) for the USA Cycling Cyclocross Nationals, stopped by the office to drop off some cool posters to promote the race and other fun events she has organized. The nationals are being held January 9-13 at Badger Prairie Park in Verona. I went [...]


      Santa Cycle Rampage sets new record!

      Posted on December 17, 2012
      by Dave Schlabowske, Deputy Director

      It is official, Milwaukee’s 12th annual Santa Cycle Rampage was off the hook.

Brrrrr and double yuck… I can’t believe I don’t already own a waterproof Santa suit given I am a freak [...]

      Posted on December 13, 2012
      by Sarah Gaskell, Director of Projects

      As of Jan. 1, hunting and trapping will be  allowed in all state parks, trail and other natural areas, but in a much reduced level compared to the original intent of the Sporting Heritage Bill. Tuesday the Natural Resources Board voted to allow hunting and trapping in state parks from November 15th to December 15th and [...]


      Hank Aaron Bridge to Domes going in

      Posted on December 12, 2012
      by Dave Schlabowske, Deputy Director

      This morning I got up early to go photograph the workers crane in the first section of a new 270-foot long bike and pedestrian bridge from the Domes to new park and extension of the Hank Aaron State Trail under construction in the Menomonee Valley. The whole lift took about an hour and was in [...]
