Ocean Ridge police officer Richard Jones stops in Briny Breezes to talk with Judy Dugan and her dog Rudy. Jones recently suggested that Briny might be served by a bicycle patrol to allow for easier movement in the community and promote more interaction with residents. The bicycle, including flashing lights and siren, was purchased with community donations. Ocean Ridge provides police services to Briny Breezes on a contract basis. Jerry Lower/The Coastal Star

Excellent idea! Community policing like that is a rare luxury, and we are very fortunate that the ORPD is in a position to offer it.
Would work well up and down Old Ocean/Ana as well, I would think. I recall seeing an officer on Old Ocean on a bike in 2008.
