Things are stirring on the bicycle safety front. Circle the date -- the bike safety action plan's first workshop is NOV 29, 8:30am-4:30pm at the DOT building on McKinley Drive, just south of Fowler Ave. and the USF campus.
And my friends at Penn’s Cycling School and Tampa BayCycle are presenting a Safe Cycling Commuter Skills Course.
Who: Anyone who wants to know how to ride safely in traffic in order to use their bicycle for commuting
When: Wednesday November 17th, 2010 and Wednesday December 1st 2010
Time: 11:30AM – 1:00PM
