Bike Board Members,

I would like to postpone this Thursday's Bike Board meeting to the following Thursday, 12-April due to absence of myself and other members plus some committees needing a little more time to complete their recommendations. 

This month's Traffic Commission meeting has also been postponed one week to Wednesday, 11-April.  They will be deciding on our Infrastructure and Education recommendations so I hope you'll all attend to see how they work and how our recommendations come out.  The meeting will begin 6:30 PM in Council Chambers (across and up the street from where we meet).

Besides reviewing what the Traffic Commission did with our recommendations, at our next meeting, we'll have a lot to talk about the Effective Cycling training.  Eight of our members completed the March 10-11 Road I course and Nick and I will be taking the instructor certification seminar this week.

The week delay in our meeting may give the Commuting, Public Relations and Bicycle Friendly Community Application committees a chance to polish their final products and get them out as read-aheads to the Bike Board.  At our meeting, we may also have a chance to form committees to address the last of our goal groups: Law, Maps and Bike Parking.

I think we've all learned a lot over the past several months by working on our committees.  I'm hoping that we can bring together all this knowledge in the next few months to complete our first comprehensive bicycling plan.

Recapping:
Happy Spring!
