Not familiar, yet, with this group.
However, what is missing is those returning or assigned elsewhere.
We lose a supporter and co-sponsor of last years bike efforts – Tom Hucker – to Economic Matters.
It appears the Chair and Vice Chairs remain in place.
New known bike friendly members are assigned to other committees.
More to come as backgrounds are better understood.
