Our first meeting is informal…
Proposed agenda: introduce ourselves, brainstorm, collect contact information.

with time afterward to hang out for some refreshments /networking/socializing about bike issues in our community.
(We expect to meet regularly with a more structured agenda in the future.)
Kinds of activities that have been proposed: local advocacy (racks, signage, lanes); rides
(community, mountain, road); resources (information about inexpensive helmets,
legal counsel with expertise w/r/t bike accidents and legal issues; other
resources that may be helpful to the Allston/Brighton bike community);
education (of bike community, business community, drivers, local EMS, fire and
police). Specific
activities/issues/priorities of the group will be decided by those who participate.
