The following just showed up in my inbox. The topic is near and dear to your heart, and it's an opportunity to show up on a damn bike and shout Complete Streets. Who's with me? I'm planning to pack a picnic lunch.

This will be a well spent Saturday morning, and I've been looking for a reason to pack a picnic lunch. The monsoon rains will have passed and we can bask a bit in the sun after making a statement (with a rack full of bikes) and making some noise (by asking intelligent forum questions that shape the conversation).
See y'all there.

We filled up a row and a half with Complete Streets advocates. Not as many as the construction union, but a good start. Row of bikes parked at the doors. If you couldn't make it you can still send an email to your representatives.
