Just 1 hour more ........

Fbk STR Ride comments. Click to enlarge.
Cyclists have contributed their share to making Ontario a better place to live.  They are healthier and will be less of a drain on Ontario's over burdened health system.  They are tuned into the environment and are a great example to their kids.  They support and participate in rides such as Share the Road and Tour de Mississauga.

At Sunday's Share the Road Ride in Memory of Greg, Eleanor asked cyclists for just 1 more hour.

1 hour more to promote cycling in your community.  "Have coffee with your Councillor; talk to your MPP -- better still join our Ontario CAN! (Cycling Advocacy Network) where we'll train you via webinars we will be holding this Fall/Winter; if you have children, talk to their teacher or principal about Active and Safe Routes to School and how cycling and walking to school creates healthy habits for life."

Eleanor's message is one that cyclists need to take to heart.  Change does not materialize by itself.  Change needs you to make it happen.  Let's find ways to give Eleanor that 1 hour more she is asking for.
