Fw: Re-running February's Oxford Cycling column
|
| |
Below is Lucy's response to my inquiry about re-running the share the road column for February, forwarded to you with her permission. I completely understand her reasons for saying no to the column re-run. Her point about "t-shirts", however, leads me to a third wild idea I've had. Dave Zabriskie has founded Yield to Life, a non-profit organization to deal with exactly the types of issues we've been discussing ([link]), and they are launching a number of education programs.

At present you can only get them if you become a sponsor, but they've shown themselves open to suggestion before (I've already e-mailed them once), and they might be willing to just sell them if prompted since that makes money, too. I'd be willing to take point on that effort if there's interest.... more »

Bike Month
|
| |
Hi Y'all,
I've uploaded a sample word document that you could use to post at
work or distribute to colleagues/friends/random people. It's in the
files, named "Sample Bike Month Notice – 2008.doc". (Clearly the
information in pink needs to be revised for your specific situation).
Also, we're having more official looking Bike to Lunch and Work fliers... more »
