The Sitka Cycling Club will hold its monthly meeting from 1-2 p.m. on Wednesday, June 3, using Zoom online meetings due to the need to social-distance ourselves for health and safety during the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak. This online meeting is open to all interested folks interested in promoting safe and fun cycling in Sitka.
The monthly meeting is open to everyone interested in making Sitka an even better town for cyclists of all ages. Topics include success stories, a single-track trail update for the 907 loop, brainstorm how to support the single-track project now that 907 is finished, revamping the club ride and 2020 schedule, figuring out how we can promote bikes during a pandemic, updating our 2020 goals and other considerations, planning the Alaska Walk and Bike Conference that will be virtual on June 9-12 (it no longer is postponed to 2021), planning the Sitka Half Century Ride in August, follow-up actions, and a summary and close.
In addition, Josh Houston will discuss his progress on mapping bicycle parking in Sitka and what help he needs to further the project. You can find his online map at this link, and a Google document at this link that lists various locations. There also is a Facebook group called Mapping Sitka.
Also, June 3 is World Bicycle Day, so let’s celebrate. Se below for a printable page for the kids to color.
