Missouri Bicycle News

Fellow Cyclists,

May is National Bike Month!

To celebrate, Trailnet is giving away two bicycles! Use your bike instead of your car when you can, then register in our drawing.

Use your bike to run errands, visit friends, go to work or just about anywhere. Then keep track of your May bike commuting miles and at the end of the month, register at the Trailnet web site.

You'll be entered to WIN either a Specialized Comfort Bike from Sunset Cyclery -or- a 2003, Limited Edition, New Belgium Brewing Cruiser Bike!

ALSO, Next Friday, May 16th, is NATIONAL BIKE TO WORK DAY. Trailnet will be set up between 6:30 to 8:30 AM at the Missouri History Museum in Forest Park. Enjoy goodies and tasty treats from Companion Baking Co. and meet our "Share the Road" TV ad spokesperson, Shandi Finnessey, Miss Missouri. AND witness the office of Mayor Slay present a proclamation of May as Bike Month! We're alerting the media so you might even get on TV. Can't ride the whole way? You can take your bike on MetroLink or MetroBus for no extra charge to the Forest Park Metro stop and roll on over to the festivities. If you want to drive over with your bike and ride from there, please park in the "twin" parking lots near the Davis Tennis Center.

PLUS, Got a Bike Commuting Question? Ask a BIKE MENTOR Online! Trailnet can team you up with your own personal Bike Mentor to help you get started as a bicycle commuter. These seasoned commuters can help you with route planning, clothing, gear selection, and any of your other questions and concerns. Just go to http://www.trailnet.org and click on Mentors.

Good riding,
Steve
