Nanaimo Bike Info Night

We would like to invite you to the 2015 Nanaimo Bike Information Night which is being held at Bowen Park Complex on Thursday January 22nd 2015 from 7 to 9pm. The evening will include updates by the city and other organizations on the extension of the E&N trail, a new Bicycle Map,  the Bicycling Master plan,  and other bicycling topics & issues. We hope to generate a wide interest and to get feedback and lots of questions.
We are inviting City of Nanaimo Mayor & Council and senior staff to be present, to hear any concerns, ideas and updates and we want to see as many people as possible, cyclist and non-cyclists. This is the night to speak on the topic of bicycling and how we can improve, expand and excel at creating a safe, enjoyable community for all.

Other topics that will be discussed are, how to deal with our ever growing inactive school population, how to work on safe routes to school.

We are looking at several bike stores showcasing some of the new for 2015 merchandise, and we asked for presentations by the various bicycling groups and organizations in the city and the district of Nanaimo.  Poster is attached and also available at this link: www.bikesense.org/bin/

Sincerely

Gord Foy, Engineering Department, City of Nanaimo,
Andre Sullivan, Chair Nanaimo Regional Rail Trail Partnership,
