Sorry, I somehow failed to send this meeting notice previously. See forwarded message from Co Exec Joe Parisi for an invite to help shape Dane County's biking environment.
Hopefully by April 12 we won't have the threat of snow to keep people from biking to the Lussier Center. (Yes, I know that doesn't stop the hard-cores, but people willing to bike in snow, or on ice-covered paths are still the minority.)
