Bicycle Friendly Communities - eh?

The Americans have had them for years.  Bicycle Friendly Communities courtesy of the League of American Bicyclists.

They're coming to Canada - to Ontario specifically.  The League of American Bicyclists has given Share the Road Cycling Coalition their blessing and help to Canadianize and use their successful program in Canada.
Original BFC plaque modified!

What will it take to be a bicycle friendly community?  The answers may surprise you.  Sure you can expect bike lanes to be part of it but its much, much more.

You can attend a hands on workshop to discover what it takes to become a Canadian bicycle friendly community at the Ontario Bike Summit held in Burlington, Ontario Sept. 20 & 21.

Which city in Canada has what it takes to become the first?  Come to the summit & bring your bike.

Wouldn't this plaque look great in your community?  Its not easy, it will take work, lots of work but it will be worth it!

See you at the Ontario Bike Summit!  Thank you League of American Bicyclists.
