Michigan Bicycle Summit - March 27
John Lindenmayer
You may receive a message from me in error regarding communications about
the Michigan Bicycle Summit. It was intending to go the just LMB Region
Reps, but it appears that it accidently went to all LMB Region Google
Groups. My apologies. I've deleted it from all the groups, but it may
still come through regardless. Nothing private or sensitive, just
instructions on how LMB Region Reps should RSVP for the Summit. Just wanted
to send this follow up since it might be confusing out of context.
Seeing how I have your attention at this point anyway, I do want to take the
opportunity to formally invite all Michigan cyclists to attend our 2010
Michigan Bicycle Summit to be held on March 27th here in Lansing. Andy
Clarke, Executive Director of the League of American Bicyclists, will
keynote the Summit, and Chris Phelan, founder of the Ride of Silence, will
be a special guest.
The theme of this year¹s Summit is ³Providing tools for a brighter bicycling
future in Michigan.²
During the day, Summit participants can choose among 12 different workshops,
covering such topics as: Complete Streets; The Ride of Silence; Bikeability
Assessments; Bike Shops¹ Role in Advocacy; Making Your Tour Accessible to
All; and Bicycling and the Law.
The registration fee of $40 per person ($65 for exhibitors) includes all
materials, lunch and snacks.
We will also hold a reception the night before on Friday March 26, where LMB
will present our 2010 Awards for Bicycle Advocate, Bicycle Educator,
Distinguished Service and Volunteer of the Year. Andy Clarke and Chris
Phelan will also be at the Friday reception.
See the link below for a complete listing of Summit workshops, information
about presenters, and on-line registration.
