We will use the Moodle forum to act as a pseudo-student blog. I expect (hope) that you will find things related to the things we are talking about when you leave our classroom. This may be through your observations on streets and paths. In addition, many scholars and activists are writing things about biking and about automobiles relevant to this course. Once during the course of the course, I expect you to make a post on the class forum noting something you saw of interest and adding your commentary on why it is interesting/how it relates to the course. (200 words).
Here are some sites that have useful information: (Of course you are encouraged to find sites of your own and share them with us.)
