Debby Grant
mentioned that we will start talking about the Request for Grants
for this year. Last year we had a couple organizations that we were
not able to help. We will have them contact us with their requests.
Gregg’s
Alderwood Cycle is having a grand opening May 5th and we are looking
for volunteers to host a club table.
Kristin
mentioned that Bike-to-Work Day will be May 18th. Debby Grant has
volunteered to be a team captain and create a BIKES Club Team.
Kristin, on
behalf of Community Transit, is looking for sponsors to pay $200
which will go towards purchasing 150 Snohomish County Bicycle maps
for the club and 150 for the community. Debby Grant motioned for
the club to be a sponsor, and the motion passed unanimously. The
club logo will go on the map.
A few members
talked about their favorite ride. Doug Andrews said the best paid
ride he has done a couple times and will do again is the Red-Spoke
Bike Tour, to be held July 18-22 this year. This is hosted by the
Redmond Rotary and is a fully supported 5-day 300-mile bike ride
from Redmond to Spokane.
Doug Andrews
asked about the process to buy and install a bike rack to be placed
on a sidewalk in a local city or town. If anyone has any experience
or a desire to pursue this question, please contact Tim.
