This is a simple program to inform people they do not have to be athletic to use a bicycle. They do not have to bike to work or bike the Tour de France. The can still safely use a bicycle to reduce their dependence
on short car trips.
These events are all volunteer, no money is exchanged.
I started out with the idea of let's reduce automobile use.
First you have to know that
50% of car trips are 3 miles or less.
And most of those are errands include
grocery stores trips. Shoppers no longer
buy a station-wagon full of bags.
Last summer we found out that 87% of shoppers at New Seasons Concordia store buy 10 items or less...
Things have changed in our favor as cyclists.
