Friends -We're busily preparing bike to school day rides for May 9th at South MS (Kara Weld), the old Suncrest Primary (Beth Rota), and my crew at Mountainview ES. The Mountainview art teacher, Sarah Guerry, had her students put together a cool poster that is attached. Please feel free to share! And, please feel free to join in on one of the rides!Thanks!Christiaan "When the spirits are low, when the day appears dark, when work becomes monotonous, when hope hardly seems worth having, just mount a bicycle and go out for a spin down the road, without thought on anything but the ride you are taking.” -Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

Good afternoon Drew, I wanted to reach out and let you know that I heard good things about your ride around town. My stretch therapist joined you and was super positive. On a different not, I'm free on Tuesday if you still need tire changing help. Enjoy your day. Colin

Creating Bike Lanes Isn’t Easy. Just Ask Baltimore. Or Boulder. Or Seattle. The Wall Street Journal Cities’ drive to expand bike lanes keeps running into a wall of opposition—even in bike-friendly places like Seattle or Boulder, Colo. Read the full story Shared from Apple News

Announcement: Please plan to attend proclamation reading tomorrow (Tuesday) 7pm
by Drew Gatlin via Bikeboard 16 Apr '18

16 Apr '18

It will be a chance for us to: 1. Take a group photo 2. Sign a few things that we need signed 3. Show our smiling faces to the new city council 4. Follow up on some bike-month plans There are no other proclamations on the agenda, so the time commitment will be minimal: estimated definitely less than 45 minutes. Please text me at 304-719-7900 if you can make it! -- *J.D.

Please Read: Bike Month Meeting Tomorrow at 7pm at Suncrest Panera
by Drew Gatlin via Bikeboard 10 Apr '18

10 Apr '18

Howdy Board! We had a lovely meeting last week and our plans for bike month are shaping up. The events committee will meet tomorrow, 7pm, at Panera Bread in Suncrest. We need help with the following events and plans: April 17th Bike Month Proclamation (mostly just need people to show up) May 4th Bike to School Day (maybe, but we could also postpone this until after bike rodeo?) May 14-18th Bike to Work Week (promotion around town of national bike challenge) May 18th Bike to Work Day May 19th Bike Rodeo The bike rodeo in particular will be a major event. We plan to give 125 helmets away and host it out at the Mountaineer Mall. We have big plans and lots of partners already on this, but we still need your help! Most other events / days will look like they have in the past. Our other major goal for this meeting is to develop a "host your own bike to work day" packet. We will send this out to champions at major local employers to encourage the proliferation of commuter stations (that don't require our direct supervision or volunteer time!). It will also include promotional materials for our other events. If you have any questions or comments feel free to reach out to me or Harry, Chip, or Bridget (current members of the events committee). Also, I made a facebook group to reduce email on the bike board list. Check it out <https://www.facebook.com/groups/MorgantownBikeBoard/>. I'll send out a more formalized announcement about this later. Thanks! Drew -- *J.D. Gatlin* Graduate Research Assistant Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering 653 Engineering Sciences Building West Virginia University Chair, *Morgantown Municipal Bicycle Board* Morgantown, WV 26505
