Mass Volunteer Call – Amgen Tour of California

January 3, 2008 - 9:25pm -- Shelly

Ready. Set. Bike!

We're doing bike parking for the Amgen Tour of California this February and we need your help! Help Silicon Valley residents see that bicycling is a viable mode of transportation by parking their bikes safely in our corrals and sharing with them the vision of SVBC. Just in Palo Alto's Prologue alone, we're expecting 5,000-10,000 bicyclists to show up and we need a massive volunteer effort to ensure that no bike is harmed. Please join us as we show Silicon Valley just how safe, clean and green a bicycle parking lot can be.
