Turkey run, turkey run! Watch the turkey run!

Spotted: A west coast vegan purchasing a one-way train ticket to STL January 3, 2012

It’s facebook-official, so the rumors have been confirmed. Marielle will officially become a resident of the state of Missouri on January 13th. She will be living in the Central West End by Forest Park and working at Trailnet, a bicycle advocacy non-profit. She’ll have to post the details later, or, better yet, stop by her apartment and ask her in person :)

    Had one last bike ride last week when Libby was here. Bikes now put away for the winter. Might be swayed to rack them and head south in the spring if someone could recommend a cool trail in the STL metro area.

    BTW, I have a brother who lives in STL. He comes to the Pokey area frequently. If you’re interested in a ride to Grandma B’s I could give you the contact info.

    Looking forward to seeing you again.

    Hi Everyone!

    I will be arriving in St. Louis on Jan 14th. I will working for Trailnet, a bicycle advocacy non profit in St. Louis. They do very cool work- including the trail across the river. John, when I get to St. Louis, I’m sure I will have more than enough bike maps for you.

    I sent in an application for an apartment in the Central West End today. If I get the apartment, I will let everyone know where I’ll be. And I am hoping to establish a fold-out sofa fund, so I can afford a good sofa for all of my baseball season guests ;)

    I can’t wait to see everyone very soon!

      I went to the trailnet.org and couldn’t see anything about nude biking in STL. I guess it was rumor that Trailnet hired you thinking, “West Coast — Nude Biking. Like same!”

      Actually I did surf to Trailnet.com. It looks like an established organization with an admirable mission. Do you know yet what they are going to have you working on, assuming the rumor is incorrect?

    I’ll be working on their Travelgreen position, which focuses on bicycle commuting. They are just now expanding the program, so I think they are not sure what they will have me working on either. I will be doing some work in the planning department as well.
