Meeting a middle school school cycling club

The Crusty Cassette weblog reports on a meeting with a group of middle school bicyclists:
On the Missouri side we met a junior high school cycling club from St. Louis. Great to see teachers and supporters out with 15 or more kids teaching them the joys of cycling. The school bought the cycles, and it's treated as any athletic club. The 29th was a school day, and the kids were enjoying cycling during the mid afternoon. They shared their PowerAid and snacks with us and showed us something neat a school could do to get inner city kids out on bicycles.
The club is, of course, the Dolphin Bicycle Club from Compton Drew Middle School, which was organized by MoBikeFed's very own Joe Torrisi.

Find out more about how the club was organized, funded, and run here and here.
