Members of the Morgantown Bicycle Board et al,
I was observing a student teacher at Morgantown High School this morning. The topic was global warming.
When asked how many people walk to school, 2 out of the 18 students raised their hands. When asked "How many of you would like to be able to ride your bicycles to school?" six other students raised their hands. There is obvious interest in bicycle commuting to school among these MHS students.
