Thank you for all of your responses ...Hi Everyone,<br /><br />Thank you for all of your responses and you can rest assured that we will not give the final word on this material without testing out on some other wheeled vehicles/devices including thin-tired bicycles and inline skates.<br /><br />We will post videos on our blog in the next few weeks of our tests. Also, if anyone would like to take initiative and try out some of their own bikes/skates on this material, you can visit Yale's Kroon Hall (where the above video was made) and post a link to your analysis here. The address of Kroon is:<br /><br />195 Prospect Street<br />New Haven, CT 06511-8499<br /><br />We have a number of reasons for choosing the pavers over asphalt including:<br />1) It respects the historic nature of the site and enables us to create a bike-able surface without damaging the original canal walls or the railroad tracks that are still in this portion of the trail.<br />2) It does not absorb as much sunlight and retains more water, which will create a much cooler environment in the park surrounding the trail during the summer.<br />3) It's more eco-friendly in that it is permeable and does not interfere with groundwater absorption.<br />4) It is more eco-friendly in that it is not an oil byproduct such as asphalt.<br />5) The pavers do not need to be replaced as frequently as asphalt.<br />6) There is an arguable aesthetic value to the pavers over the asphalt, especially considering that asphalt will begin developing cracks and potholes after a few years.<br /><br />Stay tuned for more on this issue...Dean Sakamoto Architects LLChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00042225660884430823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7990404286592169063.post-56284820272363879852011-04-28T02:06:31.969-10:002011-04-28T02:06:31.969-10:00While it may be good for wide tires, I think this ...While it may be good for wide tires, I think this definitely poses a problem for thin tires, which accounts for a lot of bikers out there. I think the pavers also make it difficult to ride a faster speed than what's demonstrated in the video.Jeffrey Trullnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7990404286592169063.post-2048464090622393442011-04-28T01:21:41.991-10:002011-04-28T01:21:41.991-10:00Please do not do this.

There are also q number of skaters. The will not be able to use this part of the trail. Why do that? Asphalt please!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7990404286592169063.post-56755405694289628772011-04-27T15:16:59.654-10:002011-04-27T15:16:59.654-10:00Why something other than the asphalt used on the r...Why something other than the asphalt used on the rest of the trail? There's a reason that roads and the rest of the trail uses asphalt. Cost may be a factor (I genuinely don't know), but it's also a perfectly good riding surface.Trip Kirkpatrickhttp://triptronix.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7990404286592169063.post-91450226363613320112011-04-27T08:16:32.968-10:002011-04-27T08:16:32.968-10:00The grooves would appear to be a problem for anyon...The grooves would appear to be a problem for anyone using inline skates (e.g. Rollerblades).Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17587585676604265750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7990404286592169063.post-58319477369768646372011-04-26T11:49:29.276-10:002011-04-26T11:49:29.276-10:00Interesting.
