Miami Valley Cycling Summit Returns May 19

March 16, 2023 By Dayton937

Registration is now open for the Miami Valley Cycling Summit hosted by Bike Miami Valley and the City of Dayton.  This free, regional event will be held in person on May 19th from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM at the downtown branch of the Dayton Metro Library.  The event welcomes elected officials, government staff, local leaders and cycling advocates to participate. Registration is open at www.CyclingSummit.com.

A keynote by former Dayton local, and founder of the Miami Valley Cycling Summit, Andy Williamson is sure to inspire.  Today, Andy supports West Virginia’s efforts to attract and retain talent and build a stronger, more vibrant outdoor economy and communities through his role as the Director of Outdoor Community Development at the Brad and Alys Smith Outdoor Economic Development Collaborative. In his keynote, Andy will detail why outdoor recreation infrastructure and trails are the key foundational element to building a vibrant, active, healthy community, resilient economy, and quality visitor experience.

The MVCS aims to use the power of cycling to drive economic development in communities, both large and small, throughout the Miami Valley region. This year’s theme is “Cycling Builds Community.”  Content experts will detail how cycling can improve the transportation, health, and economic vitality of the Miami Valley. Sessions will occur following the morning keynote and will cover a variety of topics including, but not limited to: a regional bikeways update, a bike tour of cycling infrastructure, equity in engineering, and a review of new bike parks.

The Miami Valley Cycling Summit begins with the Bike to Work Day Pancake Breakfast at RiverScape MetroPark (7-9am) before the formal program begins at 9am at the Dayton Metro Library’s Eichelberger Forum. Registration includes lunch, breakout sessions, and a post-reception.

The Miami Valley Cycling Summit Is Friday

May 27, 2015 By Dayton Most Metro

The fourth biennial 2015-miami-valley-cycling-summit-83Miami Valley Cycling Summit is happening on May 29, 2015 in Piqua. Join with hundreds of regional leaders and cycling advocates at the Fort Piqua Plaza in historic downtown Piqua, Ohio to share your passion for cycling and influence the future of cycling in the Miami Valley. Once again, thanks to generous support of Bike Miami Valley and numerous event sponsors, participation in the Miami Valley Cycling Summit is FREE.

The Miami Valley Cycling Summit is the region’s opportunity to bring together in one location, for one day, they key individuals who are making decisions about the future of the Miami Valley and to share with them the importance that cycling culture has to our region. Let these leaders know about your passion. Help them learn how more people in the Miami Valley could add bicycling to their transportation mix. Talk to the planners and engineers who are working on integrating facilities in critical locations. Come to the Cycling Summit on Friday, May 29, 2015 in Piqua.

The planning committee has been hard at work since just after the third Summit ended in 2013 in Springfield. The lineup of speakers and breakout sessions will be outstanding, once again. The keynote speaker will be Mayor Bill Peduto from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Pittsburgh recently hosted the Pro Walk Pro Bike Pro Place conference, and under his leadership the city has begun to reshape the streets to be welcoming of all forms of transportation. Separated bike lanes and transit lanes are making an active transportation center in the steel city.

Check out the Summit web site at http://www.cyclingsummit.com and like them on Facebook as well. You’ll have all the latest updates on the schedule and registration. When you register, consider being a Summit volunteer as well! See you in Piqua during Bike Month!

Dayton Bike Share: More Than an Idea

May 29, 2013 By Dayton Most Metro 1 Comment

Murphy says, “We wanted to answer the question of whether the Dayton region was
ready for bike sharing.
What we found from our research is that the answer is yes.”

With bronze-level recognition from the League of American Bicyclists already in hand, Bike Miami Valley has their eye on the prize of making Dayton one of the most bike-friendly cities around. What’s exciting is that they’re taking the steps needed to make it more than a good idea.

This Friday at an afternoon session of the Miami Valley Cycling Summit, Scott Murphy – one of the volunteers leading the bike share effort – will present the results of an in-depth feasibility study that 1) surveyed citizen interest and 2) examined regional data to determine if the region could sustain a bike share.

The more obvious of the two questions is that our community is excited by a bike share. Bike Miami Valley’s survey demonstrated that there is strong support among local young professionals for the concept (98%) and high interest in using the system (74%). This writer’s first guess was that it was mostly current cyclists answering (of course they want it), but the survey reached out into a much wider community. Over 54% of survey respondents don’t currently use a bike for transportation (and an additional 30% only use a bike “sometimes”).  What would they think about a bike share? When broken out to the current non-riders – 80% support a bike share and over 50% are likely to use it. The survey went into a lot more detail – where would you ride, what kind of trips would be appropriate for bike share, when are you likely to ride, etc. This data was used to better determine how a bike share in Dayton would look and will be featured as part of the Cycling Summit presentation.

So – the people want to ride. But wanting something (see previous stories on grocery stores, music halls, etc) doesn’t mean that downtown has the infrastructure to support it.

Or does it?

Yes, it does.

Part two of the feasibility study focuses on the current infrastructure, population density, retail density, and other important factors that demonstrate bike share readiness. Note– current state of being. Bike Miami Valley doesn’t argue that if a few more shops come downtown or if more people move in, we could handle it. Downtown Dayton is ready now.

The team analyzed a two-county region to see where the ideal bike share area may be. They considered population, shopping, restaurants/bars, tourist attractions, topography, and many other factors to see where the greatest critical mass for bike share exists. The bike share demand analysis found a four square mile area around downtown Dayton that’s ideal (north to Dayton Art Institute, west to Wright-Dunbar, east to St. Anne’s Hill, south to University of Dayton). This area includes a high population density and retail, an abundance of university students, current bike lanes, trails and infrastructure, connections to the RTA bus system and a relatively flat topography.

In addition to looking at the factors that would make Dayton successful, they ran the same analysis against other cities that already have bike shares (San Antonio, TX, Boulder, CO, Chattanooga, TN and others). How does Dayton stack up? We’re equal (and in some cases higher) on most of the factors linked to successful bike shares around the country.  “We were surprised to learn that our bike share demand is actually higher in Dayton than in other cities that have sustained bike sharing,” says Andy Williamson, another Bike Miami Valley volunteer who helped lead the effort.

So – the people want it and the region can sustain it. But Bike Miami Valley isn’t done yet.

“For cities that have started bike shares, the first step is always addressing the feasibility,” says Murphy.  Next steps include conversations with community stakeholders to share the results and to collaborate on a business plan analysis to finalize the station locations, choose an operational model, and identify sources of funds. The feasibility study includes an proposed analysis from the team’s work applying industry standards to size the bike share network, identify possible station locations, and estimate the capital and operational costs.

Although membership will help to sustain the bike share, many cities have secured federal grants to partially fund the start-up and operations costs and sponsorships and advertising are an easy fit. The Bike Miami Valley team proposes a model where riders join with a daily, monthly and yearly membership with the swipe of a credit card at any of the bike stations. Members can take unlimited 30-minutes rides around the service area with no additional usage fees. Revenue estimates show the transportation system could approach self-sustainment from user fares as early as five years after the launch.  “Bike sharing has already proven to be more self-sustaining than other forms of public transit,” says Williamson. “Fare revenue covers a much greater percentage of the annual operating cost than the national average for rail or bus transportation.”

It’s a good idea, and with this volunteer team it’s a lot more than that.

Get all the details (and see the data, charts, maps, etc) when they unveil the feasibility study results at the Cycling Summit this Friday.

Cannes Winner OF GODS AND MEN Now Playing!

May 6, 2011 By Jonathan McNeal Leave a Comment

Hello Everyone.

New to THE NEON this weekend is a film that has won awards around the world. It has received a grade of 100% from The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Los Angeles Times and many more. Several of you have been asking about OF GODS AND MEN, and it’s finally coming to town. That said, it might not stick around too long…so please hurry down. In addition to the new film, we will hold JANE EYRE and WIN WIN for one more week.

Synopsis for OF GODS AND MEN: “Eight French Christian monks live in harmony with their Muslim brothers in a monastery perched in the mountains of North Africa in the 1990s. When a crew of foreign workers is massacred by an Islamic fundamentalist group, fear sweeps though the region. The army offers them protection, but the monks refuse. Should they leave? Despite the growing menace in their midst, they slowly realize that they have no choice but to stay… come what may. This film is loosely based on the life of the Cistercian monks of Tibhirine in Algeria, from 1993 until their kidnapping in 1996.” (taken from Sony Classics press notes)   Visit the OFFICIAL SITE.

[yframe url=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWEIxzlKCgA’]

“Start your Miami Valley Cycling Summit experience a day early with Bike Film Night at THE NEON on Thursday, May 19 at 7:30 – featuring the Dayton premier of VEER. This critically acclaimed documentary tells the stories of people who have made a difference in the world of cycling, and how cycling has made a real difference in people’s lives. Join us for this inspiring film and support one of the Miami Valley’s own cycling advocate organizations: Bike Miami Valley. All proceeds from your $5 admission will benefit this growing cycling non-profit organization.” (taken from press release) Tickets are now available on at THE NEON box office.

[yframe url=’http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jyv0JchtTpQ’]

The FilmDayton Festival is set for May 20-22. Their website is up and running with details about each film, each party, numerous special events and links for tickets. Check it out!

I’m currently working on putting together a panel discussion to follow a screening of a powerful and moving documentary called WE WERE HERE. “WE WERE HERE is the first documentary to take a deep and reflective look back at the arrival and impact of AIDS in San Francisco. It explores how the City’s inhabitants were affected by, and how they responded to, that calamitous epidemic. Though a San Francisco-based story, We Were Here extends beyond San Francisco and beyond AIDS itself. It speaks to our capacity as individuals to rise to the occasion, and to the incredible power of a community coming together with love, compassion, and determination.” WE WERE HERE will screen on June 16 at 7PM. Tickets are $8 each and are currently available at THE NEON box office. This screening is sponsored by The Greater Dayton LGBT Center.
Be sure to take a look at the trailer, and get your tickets early.

We hope to see you soon!

Take care,
Jonathan
