The first Bike Cleveland Summit hosted by the newly minted BikeCleveland organization (a cornucopia of new and established local cycling advocates) is being hosted this weekend in (surprise!) Cleveland. The summit is positioned as a "regional strategic planning event" or in regular terms, an intro to BikeCleveland and the creation of the framework for bicycle advocacy. As Cleveland administration is showing support for the Complete Streets initiative it is imperative that local advocates are involved, to support ideas and programs that are cost effective and beneficial to non-automotive transportation so that our new systems not only work, but can be held up as a model of great design, planning and implementation.
Registration is closed for the summit (sorry I didn't get this up earlier, had way too much going on and was freaking out a bit) however it shouldn't be hard to find people involved to get your voice heard. At the very least you should be aware that this movement is underway and going forward.
