This was a bit of potential sad news that is happening in my area. The local bike club is having an organizational meeting to figure out what is going to happen with itself. Keep going in a new direction or disband. I must admit, I have been one of the no shows of the group. The rides are mostly guys and times have never seemed to jive with my life for one reason or another. I currently hold an officership with my only other organization to which I belong.

We as a community are getting more and more traffic, so I think it is critical to have someone speak on behalf of cyclists. I have noticed that other cities seem to have a better organized group, in addition to, bike shops that have things going on and doing things with their customers. I do not see any of that taking place here where I live. Running Mommy seems to have a great thing going at here place. I would love to have her shop where I am (or I go there). I also do not know how much of this might be the male/female interaction and needs from each group that come through in these shops.

I was just wondering if you all had suggestions that I might bring up. Or if I should attend and see what happens when I get there.

Thank you for your input.
