Bicycle Board Members,

With 7 members voting in the second election, the winning tag line for the Confident City Cycling business card is "Lose Your Fear and Learn to Ride with Confidence".  I hope Gary can make it fit.

Following was the final vote tally:
0 for A. Tame your fear with riding skills that reduce the risk of collisions or accidents
6 for B. Learn to Ride with Confidence
3 for C. Tame Parental Fears
0 for D. Learn to Ride without Fear
3 for E. Ride with Confidence
9 for F. Lose Your Fear and Learn to Ride with Confidence

In summary, we will use card design #3, change the tag line to "Lose Your Fear and Learn to Ride with Confidence" and put the 5 steps to riding better on the back side.

That would be good and the copy under the bullets could be edited to fit.

I propose that on the back side of the card we have something really
helpful.  Like-
http://bikemorgantown.com/biketips.php

The attached Word doc has the 5 steps at 5.5 point font fit on 3.5 in x 2.5 in biz card space.  I made two very minor wording modifications to make it fit:
4th bullet under #1, deleted "Always"; replaced "and" with "&"
3rd bullet under #2, changed "...reflector. Wear reflective tape or clothing" to "reflector and wear reflective clothing".

I printed it and can barely read it but can read it.  We'd have to be careful that it is printed on the right kind of card stock to make the print sharp and durable.

I wonder what Gary thinks/would advise.
