36 men and women + 6 days + 1 hour. Will it be enough to save the kids bike rodeo?
You could be a hero on May 17th! Volunteer for one hour and you will help save the Urban Bicycle Commuter Expo Kids Bike Rodeo and a lot more.
The C.I.C.L.E. folk were given short notice to recruit the energy to fill a dull but very important duty, and we only have six days to get it done.
It’s a lonely job, standing in a historic “Old Pasadena” alley-way, directing wayward cars back from whence they came to secure the DeLacey Street Closure for the Urban Bicycle Commuter Expo. It’s also a job that will literally save the day.
We need to fill 36 one-hour shifts on Saturday, May 17th, between 7AM to 7PM. Can you do it? Can you commit one hour out of your day, to support the Expo, to support CICLE, to support the dream of creating a Bicycle Utopia?
We need you, your friends, your mother--anyone that will show up on time, and accept this role with pride and a great understanding of its importance—to secure the DeLacey Street closure, and SAVE THE KIDS BIKE RODEO!
Are you brave enough to do two hours? Three if you’re a masochist. We will take you on! We can even break the time in half so you can take an hour breather to enjoy the Expo.
While you’re there you’ll get to enjoy all that the 2nd Annual Urban Bicycle Commuter Expo has to offer—over 30 bike exhibitors from bike shops, bike manufacturers, local cottage industry and local advocacy groups all coming together to present the latest bicycles, fashion, and gear emerging from the ultra-hot urban bike commuter scene. Live music from
VERY BE CAREFUL and FEAR MIA. How-to workshops on bike maintenance and bike commuting, and a screening of Triplets of Bellville. And, if we save the DeLacey Street Closure, an all-day kids bike rodeo. ALL FOR FREE!!!
So pick up the phone right now. We can use your support today. Dial 323-478-0060, or via email at info@CICLE.org to sign up to SAVE THE KIDS BIKE RODEO.

Essentially, correct me if I'm wrong, but we're corking DeLacey street.
Sexy, you're pretty good at that. I heard you did this in a clown suit for like 19 minutes once.

Yes... corking, that's exactly it--a ridazz favorite past time.
Thanks Alex! We've got 4 others signed on now... so only 30 more to go. (i'll call you Alex soon about times)
Eddie... you in?
Another way to look at it is like this:
We only need 12 of us to bring 2 of our friends to fill all 3 posts for one hour. Not so bad eh? I bet most of us have 2 friends and one hour during the Expo.... no? ;)

Can people do more than one hour? That way, we can make a serious dent.
I'm thinking of coupling this up with a longtime goal of mine: Biking to Pasadena. (I live in Mar Vista.) But I'm kind of goofy that way. I'll bike immense distances for, like, breakfast.
Anyone with me?
