Advocacy

Please post a comment if you are interested in putting a poster up - anywhere - in the city for The Derailleurs! I will send you a word doc.


One of the objectives of The Derailleurs is to promote cycling in the city, and especially safe cycling. Often people who have not experience urban cycling and some of the safety concerns associated with it, may not venture out onto our streets with a bicycle. I think that if we advocate safe cycling and cycling in a group atomosphere we'll see more people out & about on bicycles! This is great for the health of our communities, citizens and the world.
