“Cycling has been good to me.”
Does that statement sound right? If so, may we ask, have I returned the favor? What have we, each and every one of us done to improve this wonderful sport, activity, pastime, therapy, passion, and joy?
Here’s a small list of things that might help our sport. Perhaps you can think of more and add them in comments.
- Invite someone into the sport and help them get started.
- Wave, smile and be courteous and welcoming to all we encounter on the road.
- Stop and help a motorist.
- Join South Side Cycling Club Link.
- Give a kid a bike, and get them going on it.
- Make a donation to the League of American Bicyclists advocacy fund.
- Write to your congressman, senators, state representative, to your county commissioners, and your city council. Let them know (politely please) that you support them, and appreciate their work on our behalf.
- Ride like you are a neighbor and citizen of your community.
Just a thought.
