Missouri Bicycling, Running, Walking Calendar

Join the Missouri Bicycle Federation in Jefferson City on Monday, February 26th, 2008, for the 2nd annual Bicycle Day in Jefferson City. We will meet with legislators to ask them to help make a more bicycleable and walkable Missouri.

If you can't make it in person, you can help by calling/emailing your legislator in the lead-up to Advocacy Day.

We will make personal visits to Missouri legislators and their staff in the capital. These personal visits are by far the most productive way for us to build support for bicycling and walking issues in Missouri. We will meet and talk about the main issues early in the day, have simple printed materials you can use as a guide when talking, and will visit legislators in groups so you don't have to feel put on the spot.

* If you can attend Bicycle Advocacy Day in Jefferson City on February 26, 2008, please email director@mobikefed.org for details.

* If you would like to help out by emailing/calling legislators on our near Feb 26th, 2008, we will send details via the MoBikeFed Announce email list and on MOBikeFed.org as the Advocacy Day draws closer.
