Geonz, it goes before the city council here and about 10 different departments to decide how to rate it: class A, B or C. According to their documentation, a bike ride is considered class B thus, the insurance requirement. Pretty sad I think....

I sure hope so - the new town has a bike trail! I saw how you got around it on yours. That's an idea to keep in mind. I found out after that our bike club has insurance that covers members of the club only. But yeah, it is a racket in this town. Too bad, I had a lot of interest so I was bummed. Next year I'll get on the ball and start earlier.

You could post a notice on Craigslist to advertise it next time around. Local weekly newspapers often keep calendar sections - send them a press release or listing.
