Support Virginia HB 855 -- VDOT bike/ped committees

Since 2001, over 90,000 cyclist's have joined Cycling Forums to discuss topics from general cycling to equipment, training, racing and travel or vacation destinations (especially in europe during the tour de france). We also feature an great deals in our online store, 100's of articles, classifieds and product reviews.

Fellow Virginia Cyclists,

Please help support House Bill 855, which establishes VDOT bike/ped
advisory committees for each VDOT district -- a giant leap forward for
bicycling in Virginia. I've put an article about it on the VBF website
(http://www.vabike.org/support-virginia-hb-855), with links to find your
legislators, members of the House Transportation Committee, plus a link to
the bill itself. You can use the "share this" button at the end of the
article to help spread the word. Please forward it to your bike club
mailing lists, etc.

I'll post more about this soon -- talking points for discussing it with
legislators and others, plus advice about who else to approach for
support.

We've come close to getting this done before. With your help we can get it
done in 2008.
