TBAG
Volunteer Opportunities April is Valley Bike Month And we're getting busy... There are many cycling events coming up for Valley Bike Month, and we need your help to make them a success! If you are interested in volunteering for one or more of the events listed below, please contact the TBAG coordinator listed for that event. We will be sending out additional reminders as these events approach and things start to heat up... Sunday, April 5 is
Bike-a-Palooza, Tempe's free bike festival at Kiwanis Park. There are 2
volunteer opportunities for this event: Ride leader: Help
guide riders along the 12-mile community ride. Provide assistance with
mechanical problems, navigation, and any other issues that arise. Contact
Rebecca Clark (rebecca@biketempe.org) to
participate. Bike Rodeo: Teach
kids (and adults!) how to safely navigate common road and sidewalk hazards
that bicyclists face. Attend one of the two, 2-hour training meetings in
advance of the rodeo to learn how it will work (Thursday, March 26, 7-9 pm,
and Thursday, April 2, 7-9 pm at 10 W Guadalupe). Contact Rebecca Clark
(rebecca@biketempe.org)
for more information; this is being organized by the Tempe Police Department.
Sunday, March 29 is Scottsdale
Cycle the Arts, at the Scottsdale Civic Center. TBAG will have a table
at the event to provide general cycling information to the public and would love
help managing it. Contact Sam Bollinger (sam@biketempe.org). Wednesday, April 22 is Bike to
Work and School Day . TBAG is organizing a commuter bike-pooling
event, with TBAG board members leading rides from all breakfast site locations to
the Tempe Transportation Center, and with outbound rides to Scottsdale and
Downtown Phoenix. Inbound rides will depart at 7 am to arrive at the Transportation Center by 8, when outbound rides will leave. Let us know if you plan to join
one of the rides by contacting Tom Tomczyk for inbound rides (tom@biketempe.org) or Ryan
Guzy for outbound rides (ryan@biketempe.org). Sunday, April 26 is the Great
Bike Chase in Phoenix, a ride from Hance Park to Chase Field to a
baseball game between the Diamondbacks and San Francisco Giants. TBAG will be
running the bike valet at Chase Field and needs volunteers to set up and check
bikes in and out. Volunteers will receive breakfast and tickets to the game.
Contact Sam Bollinger (sam@biketempe.org) if you
would like to help out.
