So, how can you help? There are a few easy things to do to let the city leaders and business owners now that bicycles are here to stay! Here are a couple of ideas:
1). Ride your bike to local businesses and do 2 simple things:
a). Politely ask “Do you have bike Parking”?
b). Carry your helmet in, or even better, wear your helmet in!
2). Simply spread the word about the joy of riding a bike – Tell 1 person a day about the simple pleasure of riding a bike.
3). Email the Grapevine city officials and let them know that you would like Grapevine to become more Bicycle Friendly. A simple note goes along way, so drop them a quick line and let them know how you feel. Below is a brief email list:
Grapevine City Council
Mayor William D. Tate – wtate@grapevinetexas.gov
C. Shane Wilbanks – swilbanks@grapevinetexas.gov
Sharron Spencer – sspencer@grapevinetexas.gov
Mike Lease – mlease@grapevinetexas.gov

Roy Stewart – rstewart@grapevinetexas.gov

4). Check back often – We will be adding new ideas, meetings to attend etc…..
Thank you………and remember
On a Bicycle, you can go a great distance in a short time, or a short distance in a great time!
