We had heard there were issues boiling over with our neighbors to the north in Rye, N.Y. regarding the budding longboard communters. I'm certain longboarders want freedom to play and council members want safety for all. Commuting is not a constant playland and roads are meant to be shared by all tax payers so that all of us may get to where we need to go by means of our chosen form of transport.
The issues are hard ones but should best be addressed with progressive outcomes towards the obvious inclusion of more human powered transport. Below is a quote from a recent meeting and a link to a blog where the discussion continues. Be considerate of all views and add your voice. We plan to head up north soon to see for ourselves what the major issues and policies are.
"At a recent city council meeting, Councilman Joe Sack expressed concern about Rye's "skateboard problem" cause by the popular long boards. What do you think? Leave a comment below."
