Bicycle Month 2009 started on a grey, moist day, but our delegation to town council was met with smiles and positive attitudes. Thanks to Jeff Mills and Bonnie Schnittker for managing to fit hours of compelling information into the 10-minute time slot. Thanks to the others who came to cheer us on and thanks to council for giving us your ears and your support.

The weatherman promises sun will be shining when Mayor Al Lunney rides his 35-year-old two-wheeler through the ribbon to open Bicycle Month. Don’t miss it! 6:30 pm in front of Baker Bob’s, followed by free cake and a great movie at the Old Town Hall

Our brochures have returned from the printer and we’re distributing them far and wide as fast as we possibly can. If you can’t wait, click here to have a look at the map, with our amazing cycle routes
