Well you can call ... 614-716-1668 ... or email him ... blschumann@aep.com ... to ask him if he is on the forums, or if he is not, you might convince him to join.

Sad so many think they cannot ride a bicycle without a bike lane.

I have to confess that I did not subscribe, so I couldn't read the entire article. How did you read it?

Have you ridden the Alum Creek Trail south since they finished the bridge over 33? I need to get out there too.

I don't know about anyone else but I didn't read it, just tracked his contact information based on his name and company name he works for.

Well its a article relating to him and the company he works for.
https://www.bikecolumbusfestival.com/ - The event that AEP (the company he works for) seems to sponsor. Its coming up.
Also talking about the health benefits of biking and the organization he belongs to (and seems to be in the administration of based on Ohio government forums I've found) is this one
https://www.dcft.typepad.com/ - Who are hosting a bike thing for health as well.
Apparently also there are past fund raising events such as:
https://aepcommunityconnections.com/2...ncer-research/
Edit: Actually apparently that ride will be done in August as well under this link ... https://pelotonia.org/
Over all it appears Barry is the guy that runs the interference between AEP and the local community as his name is all over their community outreach website - https://aepcommunityconnections.com/
But this is all speculation, seeing as I cannot read the article same as you.

I emailed him, and he replied. He hasn't seen the full article either.
I've been to the Bike Columbus Festival the past two years. The Mayor's Twilight Ride is part of that, and it's fun.

I am in the process of moving from Jax FLA to Westerville. My office will be in Easton it appears that I have a bike path for 7.5 of a 8.4 mile commute. We don't really have bike paths here we have one rails to trail so I am somewhat interested in seeing if I like riding on a path.
