Last week in Chicago big city advocacy groups met to discuss bicycling issues that affect big cities. A big topic of discussion focused around challenges in the next Congress, specifically the transportation authorization bill and the climate change issue.
Secondly was a brainstorming session on joint campaign ideas, bike for your independence and bike the vote in November. Stay tuned for more details as these campaigns are launched.

Scott Bricker is the ED for the BTA in Portland Oregon, not Pittsburg.

Unbelievable indeed, we call them Scoot (Pittsburgh) and Brick (BTA).
