How to Suggest a Bike Route
If you're interested in learning how to use ChaWiki, use the below instructions to add your bike routes (and get some Wiki skills in the process!). If you just want to add your route then be done with it, edit one of our blank bike route suggestion pages.
- Find the general area where the route you want to suggest is in on a site like Google Maps
- Find the intersection where your route begins.
- Find the intersection where your route ends.
- Type the name of your route below using the following convention BRS:fromintersectionTOtointersection (ex: "BRS:Central@14thTODodds@14th")
- Click "Search or create page"
- Create a page using the BikeRouteSuggestion Template
- Name your route
- Type the two cross-streets for the beginning intersection in the "FROM" fields
- Type the two cross-streets for the ending intersection in the "TO" fields
- Choose your preferred bike route facility type for the route
- Give a brief description about why your route is needed and why you chose the preferred facility type for this route.
- Draw your route using the Map tool. Instructions on Mapping here
- Make sure to add the tag "bike route suggestion" to your page.
- Save changes
Get started by typing your route below (BRS:fromintersectionTOtointersection)
