11/30/11 ISSUE NOT RESOLVED. THE

unknown person, why did you do make believe and close this item ? I know aengus and he did not close this item. HONEY BADGER

11/30/11 MANY PEOPLE PLAN VACATIONS AROUND "BIKING". VIRGINIA BEACH IS A VACATION DESTINATION CITY. IF YOU ARE FROM OUT OF STATE AND WENT TO THE STATE MAP / WEBSITE YOU WOULD HAVE NO CLUE THAT VIRGINIA BEACH HAS MILES AND MILES BIKE ROUTES / TRAILS. PROVIDING "FREE" UP TO DATE INFORMATION ON A STATE MAP / STATE WEBSITE TRANSLATES DIRECTLY TO CASH INCOME FOR THE VIRGINIA BEACH VACATION / BIKING INDUSTRY. WHEN I VACATION IN THE U.S. MY WEB SEARCH STARTS WITH THE NAME OF A STATE AND THE WORD BIKING, - THUS, A HARD COPY OF "BIKING IN VIRGINIA" (outdated and without a VIRGINIA BEACH / SOUTH HAMPTON ROADS insert ). AENGUS - BLACKWATER

Why is the HONEY BADGER here? I thought the HONEY BADGER don't give a $hit? When did VDOT's website become VB's problem? Tell VDOT their site is whack. Hey, my spell check just fixed that. Weird....

12/01/11 ISSUE NOT RESOLVED.

12/01/11 BLUTO, DO YOU LIVE HERE AT THE BEACH ? THE CITY MOTTO IS " A COMMUNITY FOR A LIFETIME " - MUCH TIME AND EFFORT IS EXPENDED TO ATTRACT NEW PEOPLE TO LIVE HERE. AS PART OF A STATE MARKETING PLAN THE STATE ISSUES THOUSANDS OF THESE MAPS . THE FULL TITLE OF THE MAP IS - " Official State Bicycling Map - BICYCLING IN VIRGINIA ". THE "OUTDATED" COPY I RECIEVED, WITH EX GOV. TIM KAINE PHOTO AND MSG , DOES NOT EVEN INDICATE THE "OCEAN FRONT " HAS A BIKE PATH !!! THE STATE WEBSITE / ONLINE MAP CAN EASILY BE UPDATED BY JAN 2012. THE ONLY THING THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE IS FOR CITY GOVERNMENT TO CONTACT THE STATE BY PHONE CALL, FAX, MEMO OR E-MAIL AND PROVIDE THE STATE WITH UP TO DATE INFORMATION. THE "OFFICIAL " MAP HAS NOT ONE V-B PHOTO - NOT EVEN OUR ONE AND ONLY KING NEPTUNE. MAP COULD BE "F R E E " PUBLICTY FOR CITY. AENGUS

Way too many lost bikes in the city. leave this open alphablackwater

in time it will get done

This shall remain open until the missing bikes are recovered.

The city of Virginia Beach does not maintain the State bike path maps which is what this thread was originally about. It has nothing to do with lost or missing bikes in the city of Hampton Rhonda. Please contact the VDOT or the state travel centers about updated maps

there seems to be some confusion about the bikes and where they have gone. Please leave this open until they are found. I am sure the children want them back.

This issue has nothing to do with missing bikes it it about a map of bike paths that has not been updated leave this issue closed. If you want to report your child's bicycle missing please call your local police department

Well, It may not matter to you, but the children and parents both care. These bikes cost money, they belonged to kids and adults alike and they should not have been taken. What good is a bike path without a bike? Think about it before you impose your will onto others.

copied directly from above "11/29/11 goto-virginiaDOT.org-BICYCLING IN VA MAP."ONLINE" MAP IS OUTDATED,TIM KAINE NOT GOV.& V-B DOES NOT HAVE "STAND-ALONE" INSERT LIKE NORTH'N VIRGINIA." What does this statement have to do with stolen bikes? NOTHING!

Please tell us why you are set against the return of these peoples property? Did you not have a bike when you were young? Stop trying to go against the very grain of this website and let it work as the founders intended it. leave this open until the bikes are found.

I am not against return of property how ever the original poster has closed this issue twice now about the original complaint of BIKE ROUTES not being properly labeled on a tourism map. Someone else has gone off on a tangent of missing bikes the issue of the map has been resolved in the reporters eyes. If you have an issue with stolen bikes in Va beach please Va Beach police directly @ Direct: (757) 385-4141 or Email: vbpd@vbgov.com to find out how to report such crimes

The bikes are missing.
The bikes need to be found/returned.
The kids and the parents would like to have them back.

The bike path is no good without bikes. I am not sure what you don't understand, but I will ask you to stop closing this blog until such time as they have been returned. If you did not open it, do not close it.

If there are bicycles missing that are thought to be stolen, please report them to the Virginia Beach Police Department at 385-5000. I do not see anywhere in this chain of comments information on which bikes are missing, when, from where, etc. The City would be happy to assist if someone can provide specific information.
