katy Trail Connection - Governor's Press ConferenceIn the aftermath of the Tour of Missouri, MoBikeFed met with two key members of Governor Nixon's staff: Jeff Harris, Policy Director, and Scott Holste, Press Secretary.

It was a very productive meeting and we talked about a wide range of topics: Future MoDOT funding formulas, better choices for the Governor's nominees to the Missouri Highway and Transportation Commission, Complete Streets, a state bicycle map, bicycle tourism initiatives, opportunities to expand the Katy Trail, and of course the Tour of Missouri.

Stay tuned for future developments--and please do keep writing Governor Nixon:

Email: http://governor.mo.gov/contact/
Call: 573-751-3222
Ask: Governor Nixon, will you support the 2010 Tour of Missouri **and** will you support bicycle friendly policies for the Missouri, including Complete Streets and funding for bicycling & pedestrian facilities in any future MoDOT funding?
