Bike Friday morning tea was well attended and constructive, with plans for October's Ride2Work day starting to roll, and some great suggestions for the BUG. It was great to see some new faces, and share morning tea with vibrant fellow cyclists.
-I have added links to the Ride2Work website, where you can register and access all sorts of information. It is Victoria centric, and I hope SA gets into the act next year. Do register for the chance to win a bike.
-Our initial plans for Ride2Work day on the 4th will be a free breakfast. We already have some volunteers from the BUG, but many hands make light work so please let me know if you are going to be around and would like to help out. We intend to theme the whole week as 'car-free' and should be able to organize a BBQ lunch for the Friday, which falls on national Walk to Work day. We also would like to support David Ellis who is cycling from Adelaide to Darwin to raise money for kids with cancer. A voluntary parking fee and contributions for the breakfast and BBQ would be great ways to raise money.
-I have added a link to the Bikedirect maps. These are fantastic maps showing bicycle routes and grading roads in terms of their 'cyclability'. The maps are regularly updated but no longer available in hard copy. I have the old version in hard copy in my office if anyone would like to have a look.
-It is wonderful to see so many organisations working hard to promote cycling. There is plenty of information out there, and I have provided some links for your perusal.
Happy cycling!
