LCI Seminar Seeks Classroom space

[Sara DeShong]

Fellow members of ACA.

We are trying to schedule a League Cycling Instructor class for Austin on the weekend of September 28-30. We need your help to find a venue for the class.

Here are the times and requirements for the program.

• Classroom
• The room should be big enough to hold 15 people and have secure space for storing bicycles.
• We will be doing PowerPoint presentations so the room should have curtains on the windows and hopefully a screen.
• We will be in the classroom the following times
• Friday: 4pm to 8:30pm
• Saturday: 11am to 7pm
• Sunday: 10am to 3pm
• Parking lot
• We will need a parking lot no more than 10 minutes ride away (2 miles)
• Should be available 
• Saturday: 8am to 11am
• Sunday: 8am to 10am
• Needs to be 150 x 80 feet (that is four bays 12-15 spaces long)
• On-Road
• We need traffic and a busy intersection within no more than 10 minutes ride away (2 Miles)
• At least four legs on the intersection and should be traffic light controlled.
• Each leg should have some different lanes (right turn only, left turn only, etc.)
• We will be using this space on Saturday and Sunday morning.
• Night Ride
• Need an area with limited street lights no more than 10 minutes away (2 miles)
• Will be using this space on Saturday night
• A neighborhood street would be adequate.

If your company has a facility that meets the classroom criteria and would be willing to donate the space to the ACA and the League of American Bicyclists we would like to hear from you.

I have not checked with Whole Foods, but the trouble with REI (and most retail shops) is the fact that we start early and stay late.  Typically, that means that they have to pay an employee present while we are there either before the store opens or after it closes (or both).  We're working to possibly rearrange the schedule some and may be able to do the Saturday and Sunday sessions at Bicycle Sport Shop (thanks Hill), but if we can find a location that allows us to retain the standard LCI seminar structure, that would be our preference.  Stanton, would you mind checking with your contact at Whole Foods to see if they might be able to host us?

Thanks.
