Recently, we have had an out-poor of gigs head our way which soon may result in an exhausted volunteer crew of valet parkers! In an effort to relieve the "burn out" effect and to get more local cyclists involved with our organization, I am asking if anyone has some extra time to help us. Bike Valet has become a successful profit making service for Long Beach Cyclists; the goal is to raise money for our 501 (c) (3) non-profit filing. If you feel you can spare even two hours of your time for the upcoming events, please let me know! The times and dates are listed below. If you can, please specify whether you can volunteer for morning, afternoon, or evening (where applicable).<br /><br />August 21st <br />Evening <br />(exact time and location details to follow)<br /><br />August 25th<br />Rainbow Harbor (between PF Changs and Gladstones)<br />1pm - 7pm<br /><br />August 29th<br />12pm to 12 midnight (night owls, we need you!)<br />(exact time and location details to follow)<br /><br /><br />Please ask any questions you have about valet or any aspect of our organization!<br /><br />Thank you for you continued support! <br /><br />Bernadette <br />---<br />Bernadette McKeever<br />Long Beach Cyclists/Bike Valet Coordinator<br />(562) 714-8120 <br /><br /><br /><br />-- <br />Long Beach Cyclists promote cycling as a fun, valued and sustainable transportation choice in Long Beach through community, advocacy and education.<br /><br />http://www.lbcyclists.orgUnknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1574433947480315133.post-56514595750288068602009-07-16T17:19:00.001-07:002009-07-16T17:19:22.963-07:00Farmers Market Ride Begins this SUNDAY - 7/19Farmers Market Ride Begins this SUNDAY - 7/12<br /><br />Ride will have 3 great stops- Bike Station, Portfolio, and Jones's Bike Station.<br /><br />We will leave at Bike Station at about 9:10 (On Braodway near Pine)<br />We will then travel to Portfolio Coffee house and will leave at about 9:25 (Corner of 4th and Junipero) Next we will travel to Jones's Bike SHOP and will leave about 9:45 (2nd st and Pomona)<br /><br />From there we will travel to the Farmers Market!!!<br /><br />This ride will continue until the end of September!!!<br /><br />-- <br />Long Beach Cyclists promote cycling as a fun, valued and sustainable transportation choice in Long Beach through community, advocacy and education.<br /><br />http://www.lbcyclists.org<br />-- <br />Please read our blog: http://csulbcyclists.blogspot.com/Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1574433947480315133.post-18493145809529562472009-07-06T11:54:00.001-07:002009-07-06T11:54:44.859-07:00Farmers Market Ride - Begins 7/12Farmers Market Ride Begins this SUNDAY - 7/12<br /><br />Ride will have 3 great stops- Bike Station, Portfolio, and Jones's Bike Station.<br /><br />We will leave at <strong>Bike Station</strong> at about 9:10 <em>(On Braodway near Pine)</em><br />We will then travel to <strong>Portfolio Coffee house</strong> and will leave at about 9:25 <em>(Corner of 4th and Junipero)</em> Next we will travel to <strong>Jones's Bike SHOP</strong> and will leave about 9:45 (2nd st and Pomona)<br /><br />From there we will travel to the Farmers Market!!!<br /><br />This ride will continue until the end of September!!!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1574433947480315133.post-22562779138910760522009-06-25T18:23:00.000-07:002009-06-25T18:29:09.652-07:00new 'sharrows' in belmont shore<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5ykByJy5IXYxmkl_M6uKjr0PqyJXn8XC5z3bPBsEmIiLWc8URRIxGSNyn3XgJat_np5xb9cZPf0VYG6BdVMlgGgk6HNmOiwLk-0idbRM1uL6876w60pO58lbS0iJVhN9jCSpa-9ghVcwL/s1600-h/BikeSharrowsFAQs.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 247px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5ykByJy5IXYxmkl_M6uKjr0PqyJXn8XC5z3bPBsEmIiLWc8URRIxGSNyn3XgJat_np5xb9cZPf0VYG6BdVMlgGgk6HNmOiwLk-0idbRM1uL6876w60pO58lbS0iJVhN9jCSpa-9ghVcwL/s320/BikeSharrowsFAQs.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5351441998461469538" /></a><br />Hello CSU Long Beach Cyclists!<br />We want to urge all members and friends of cycling to come out on this <b>Saturday the 27th of June</b> to experience the latest high profile improvement in bicycle facilities in Long Beach for quite some time. <br /><br />The shared lane markings, or 'Sharrows' will be unveiled at <b>10:00 am at Polly's Gourmet Coffee</b> located at 4606 E. 2nd Street. Ride in the lane, like we have a right to, and see the Sharrows announce to all roadway users that we are riding where we belong, Bikes Belong!<br /><br />Come celebrate, spend some money and show merchants how happy we are to shop where we are respected and valued as normal people using our bikes to enjoy where we live, work and play.<br /><br />The Long Beach Cyclists played an important roll in helping to make sure that this lane marking was placed correctly and will be effective in helping cyclists to be recognized as legitimate users of our roads and streets.<br /><br />Additionaly, we have also helped to document use patterns before the markings were applied so that later we can determine the effects on encouraging motorist and cyclist safe driving behaviors. Long Beach Cyclists are working with the City of Long Beach to help it achieve the goal of being the most bicycle friendly place in North America.<br />--<br />(CSU)LBcyclistsTravishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01281624622735245168noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1574433947480315133.post-8727191174965403522009-06-16T15:22:00.001-07:002009-06-16T15:45:56.513-07:00CAR-FREE FRIDAYS!!!
