Good morning Christina & Bike Board, I have two interns (Abby Foster and Forrest Pearre) working with MRTC this summer primarily on gathering data for a national rails to trails conservancy economic impact study. I also would like them to get out and raise the awareness of MRTC and the rail-trails. I am wondering if they could join in on Friday at your gathering. Help promote it this week on social media. And perhaps hand out bottled water and have people sign up for MRTC e-news, kroger rewards, facebook.

Does anyone organizing this event want to chat with me about ideas? Perhaps we set up somewhere in the evening for the commute home? Let me know your thoughts and if you have any other rides to promote for Bike Month. Cheers, Ella
