Safe Bicycle Passing Bill Meeting

This Monday evening, Feb. 2, at 7pm, the Fort Worth Bicycle Association (FWBA) is hosting Bike Texas Executive Director Robin Stallings at their meeting. Mr. Stallings will be speaking on up-coming legislative efforts related to safe cycling access and funding in our state capitol; specifically this year's Safe Passing Bill for Cyclists. I strongly urge each of you to check your schedules and attempt to make this meeting.

Please come out to this meeting and show there are a lot of interested cyclists in Fort Worth, Tarrant County, and North Texas.

I believe its a great thing that FWBA has invited Bike Texas to speak at this meeting and I greatly appreciate their sharing this event with other clubs and cyclists like ourselves. Increased awareness and forward movement on greater/safer bicycle access in our region is not an individual need, nor can it be accomplished by a single club; however, when cyclists gather together we are a majority standing before our local, regional and state representatives... lets all show-up and learn more about this year's process and show this region is concerned.

Details about this Monday's meeting:

Date: Monday, 2 Feb 2009
Time: 7:00pm
Location: 3500 Camp Bowie Blvd, Fort Worth
The meeting will be held at 7:00 pm on Monday

I guess I should join the club. I've thought about it the last few years I just haven't gotten around to it. I'll try to make it to the meeting.
