We're here to become better ambassadors of the sport, of the activity, of the bike. What a great way to start a conference. The mixer allowed me to speak with many other activists, enthusiasts, and planners who came from PA, CA, LA, MN, NV, WA... who all face the same challenges we face in BR and many of them have overcome those challenges to flourish with funded, staffed programs, active members, and political success.
Lots of ideas have been planted and the conference has not yet started.
Look in the upcomming BRBC newsletter for a more in-depth coverage of the keynote speech by Dylan Casey of Google who used to domestique for USPS. He's an incredibly perceptive intelligent man who has the vantage of pro-racer, college grad, Google employee, and all-around great guy.
I know, less ponderous, more Pollyanna. Maybe it's the beer.
