Thanks to Ryan for responding positively to my message below.

Thanks also to Alice, Paul, Marilyn and Nick for responding.   I think gunnar already volunteered at our last BB meeting.

This morning, Elizabeth Lilly the MPO conference organizer informed me that she's expecting 10 people for the ride next Wednesday, only 1 renting a bike.   

The ride will begin at the Hotel Morgan at 4:30 pm Wednesday and end at the cookout at Marilla Park at 6:00 pm.  This should be a good opportunity to develop rapport with WVDOH folks as well as drink some beers & eat.

Bicycle Board Members,

Who's coming on the Wednesday evening MPO rail-trail ride?  I need at least one other cyclist to either lead the group or to bring up the rear.  The ride begins at 4:30 pm at the Hotel Morgan and ends at the Cookout at Marilla Park at 6:00 pm.  We will ride from the Hotel down to the rail-trail, out to Eighth St., turn around, ride the rail-trail out to the crossing of Green Bag Road at Southern States and then back on the road to Marilla.
