| Big demand spurs printing of more bike guides - Birmingham Business Journal Posted: 09 Nov 2010 10:00 AM PST  Overwhelming demand has led to a second printing of the Cincinnati Bike Guide, a map showing the best routes for cyclists to use throughout the region. The original document, available for download at www.oki.org since spring 2009, was printed on 10,000 maps and distributed by the Ohio Kentucky Indiana Regional Council of Governments. "The fact the initial 10,000 copy run of these bike guides was depleted in 14 months points to the growing interest of individuals enjoying the benefits of bicycle travel," said OKI Executive Director Mark Policinski. "This response is very gratifying because it reinforces the quality work OKI staff continuously provides to the public." The second printing coordinated by Don Burrell, OKI senior planner and bicycle/pedestrian coordinator, contains some minor modifications and additions. It was updated to include new bike facilities undertaken in the past year such as the completion of additional bike trails along the Great Miami and Ohio rivers and the city of Cincinnati's designation of new bike lanes. Also included are sidepath facilities not previously shown on the map and route and street name corrections. Some Kentucky road classifications in the guide have been changed to conform with a recently published updated Kentucky Bike Route Guide.
