Cycling on the South Fraser Perimeter Road
Interesting article written by an ardent cyclist who often travels from Burnaby to Vancouver Island.

Hi folks,
Rode from home (Burnaby) to Victoria on Saturday, then back from Victoria to downtown Vancouver on Sunday. On Saturday, I took the South Fraser Perimeter Road from the Patullo Bridge. Just a few impressions:

Cycling Skills program info from Comox Valley CC
By offering the CanBike courses to adults (particularly seniors) we
were able to develop a team of volunteers who helped with the Bike
Skills Rodeos we offered at the elementary schools (focusing on grades 3
to 5). We were able to purchase equipment necessary to run these
rodeos including bikes that we could loan to the children who did not
have an appropriate bike to use and a trailer to transport and store all
these items. The other thing funded was a part-time coordinator for
the year.
Although the funding and paid position have ended
the program is established and bike rodeos are being run at almost all
of the elementary schools in the district.

Correspondence between Comox Valley CC and Graham Bruce - ICF
I am forwarding an email from Graham Bruce of ICF in reply to an
email I sent him. It reinforced to me how important it is for the
various island cycling coalitions to keep each other informed about the
latest developments and ways to support this project. I have sent a
copy to Jack Beck as well.
I will talk to the
board about writing a letter of support for the trial as Graham has
suggested. Has or will GNCC and OceansideCC written letters of support?
I asked Jack if BCCC has/will write a letter of support as well.
I
am also sending a link to the Vancouver online bike map done by UBC -
you might already have seen this but in case you haven’t it is work a
look: http://www.cyclevancouver.ubc.ca/cv.aspx

Initial Meeting of Van Island Cycling Coalitions
On February 8 board
members of the Greater Nanaimo Cycling Coalition, the Comox Valley
Cycling Coalition and the Oceanside Cycling Coalition met in Parksville
for an informal meeting.
It
was a very productive and informative meeting between the 3
organizations. We discovered that we all have similar challenges and
issues. We floated several ideas and suggestions in solving these
challenges.
