    Chris, nice write-up of your first year experiences. Now you need to add some advocacy to your other experiences. :)

    The Alexandria Bicycle Pedestrian Advisory Committe (BPAC) will be meeting on March 11 at 7 pm at the Durant Arts Center, 1605 Cameron Street. The meetings are always informative and you already know several members.

    Bravo and well said, ChristoB50! You just made one of the most effective arguments for e-bikes I’ve ever seen. Congratulations on the many personal achievements, and thank you for all the ways you’ve given back to the community — ranging from the epic snow shoveling to the many, many bags of trash removed to the willingness to jump in and organize your first group ride.

    I also echo what Casey said: BPAC is a great way to get involved in more advocacy, education, or event planning. Hope to see you at the next meeting.

    Chris – There’s so much to like about your year of biking and I’m glad to see all of the physical, mental, social and environmental benefits that it’s had. I’m glad to see that joining the forum has been a key component in supporting that.

    All of the cool kids participate in Alexandria BPAC. The March 11th meeting is going to be pretty darn good too with three guest speakers: Katy Lang from WalkArlington, Emily Gage from Phoenix Bikes and Champ Burnley from the Virginia Bicycling Federation.

    Also – Plug for joining the Washington Area Bicyclist Association which advocates for better bicycling infrastructure in the DC region. – https://www.waba.org/join

    Curse you, peer pressure and your insidious infiltrating ways! I thought I got thee behind me back in high school!
