David: Michael wants to know what's going on. Marko, what's going on?
Marko: I don't know. What's going on, Paul?
Paul: Wait a minute. Who wants to know?
Dwayne: Michael wants to know.

So much going on I'm having a tough time keeping track.

1. We put the key in and turned it. The 2011 Sioux Falls Bike to Work Day event started up. It's always the 3rd Friday of May. Come on out. Grab some celebratory food stuffs. Leave your car at home.

In an effort to get broader input for planning the day take a moment and PLEASE visit this Survey Monkey link. Answer our two question survey.

2. South Dakota Bicycle Coalition has put out it's first newsletter. It's true we're looking to actually pay someone to complete some administrative tasks. Really! Here's a link to a description of the help we're looking for.

We met a week ago in Mitchell to process the Bike Summit experience. One of the results of this meeting was the formation of some committees. I'm the board person pushing on the Bicycle & Pedestrian Education & Safety Initiatives.

Our friend Jim Books operator of Dakota Bike Tours will be a National Bike Summit panelist for "Creating a New Power Base – Organizing and Supporting the Bike Travel and Tourism Sector to Support Bike Advocacy." It is exciting to me to have a South Dakota cyclist representing at the summit.

3. Smart Cycling - I'll be teaching another section of Traffic Skills 101 April 28, 29 and 30 through School District's Community Education program. Here is a link to their information.

4. Falls Area Singletrack - Snakebite's Bike Swap is March 20. The poster is here.

Good. See you there.
