People who otherwise would commute with their bicycles will often point out that it is the hills that impede them from this appropriate form of transportation. There are different approaches that Cities can use to facilitate solutions for steep hills. However, the Bicycle Lift Trampe in Norway takes things to a Higher Level.

The beauty of this system is that is takes up such a small footprint. Imagine a sidewalk with the track installed close to the road, well don’t imagine, look.

There is something incredibly exciting about this design. It fits into the scheme of things .. it’s like it belongs there!

Morgantown, WV would benefit from this in many places. This is why I’m writing about the Trampe in the first place. As a Bicycle Board member of the City of Morgantown this source of information came from a member of the newly formed Pedestrian Safety Board.

It is a great start for this Blog. Because you see, everyone, everywhere needs to do whatever they can to make this world we live in sustainable to the highest degree. By this I mean, we can’t continue the way we have been using fossil fuels that release CO2 to provide our energy needs. The only CO2 we should be expelling is CO2 from our lungs as these bicyclists are doing. Ofcourse, it could be correctly argued, that with the Bicycle Lift Trampe, even they are producing less of the stuff.
