Bike To Work Day, May 18

Checklist:

Workplace team signed up? Check!

Bike tuned up? Check!

Made plans to stop by the Greenstar / BCA Bacon Station? Check!

OK folks, T-7 days and counting to BTWD! If you haven’t signed up your workplace team yet, now is the time! Make sure your bike is tuned up and the tires are pumped up so that you’ll be ready to go next Friday morning. The Greenstar / BCA Bacon Station will be back and better than ever! It’s at the same place, Chester Creek trail near where the trail goes under the Seward Highway. Rumor has it there will be lots of newcomers, including the American Red Cross and Midnight Sun Brewery (did I mention free MSB beer coupons to participating cyclists).

Creek Cleanup, May 19

For those of us that use the creek greenbelt trails this is a great time to give a little back. There are lots of different opportunities to volunteer for this, as volunteers are needed for picking up trash, or hauling the filled trash bags via bike trailers, or helping park bikes at the barbecue (noon to 2 PM). For trash pickup or hauling you can pick a location that is convenient for you. Contact Matt at [email protected] to volunteer. See thewebsite for more information.

East Anchorage District Plan, May 22 6PM-8:30PM

Do you live, work, shop, or play in East Anchorage? Do you have ideas on how to improve trails, connectivity, and bike infrastructure in the area? Would you like to help shape active transportation in East Anchorage? If so, May 22 from 6PM-8:30PM at Begich Middle School (7740 Creekside Center Dr) is your opportunity to provide input in to the East Anchorage District Plan. Refreshments will be provided.

This is a unique opportunity to weigh in on the future of development in East Anchorage!
