Speaking Bikes to Power - Bike marshaling 101

22 people are interested in this workshop

Sometimes as bicyclists we have concerns that will only be solved with the involvement of local government.  Sometimes we want to raise our voices in outrage, and show our strength in numbers.  There are times when we gather publicly as cyclists to call for change: safer streets, lower speed limits, a traffic light at a dangerous intersection, driver awareness, etc.  (Much of the information for organizing direct action rides for social change can also be applied to mass rides for community delight and health.)

This workshop will be facilitated so that everyone with experience of mass rides can share best practices, and so that everyone with questions about biking and direct action can ask them.

Have you organized a safer streets bike actions for cyclist and/or pedestrian safety?  Would you like to share your experience(s)?

Would you like to learn some of the nuts and bolts of organizing a mass ride for your area?  

This workshop will introduce you to how to go from *idea to Rolling!* while keeping community safety in mind and gearing your action so that people of all abilities can participate.
