Matt Balows bike video tour of boulder in hi-speed
Aug 9th
Local Boulder Biker, Mat Barlow, straps his video camera on his bike and tours the city of Boulder in an entire loop around the town without stopping.
Boulder has one of the world’s best bike path systems. To show just how much fun it is to ride, and how far you can go, Matt Barlow set out to put together the longest route he could think of, without repeated any sections of path, and videoed it with the GoPro Hero HD. Then he sped up the video to made it all video-gamey.

Cropland Policy
The effort to develop a Cropland Policy for county-owned croplands began in 2010 with public outreach including farm tours, an open house, a Sustainable Agriculture Forum, and a Farm and Ranch Panel Discussion.
In 2011, the commissioners convened the Cropland Policy Advisory Group to advise Boulder County staff in developing the policy. Through discussion and proposed policy statements, the members of CPAG provide guidance and advice for developing a final policy.
