Byron Trajan is helping to put on a Pro D Day Tri Camp, many groups from town such as Hub City Tri Club, White Rapids Swim Club, Natural Edge Fitness, and others are helping to put on a fun day for kids aged 7-12.  This takes place on Monday, February 23rd, 2015. Between 845am-1000am Brad Goodman is putting participants on wind trainers, while Byron is working on bike handling, mounting/dismounting with the rest.  There'll be some Leaders in Training to help out, but it couldn't hurt to have a few adults there to keep things running smooth.

From 3-4pm there is a mini-triathlon, where they'll take the kids onto the E&N Trailway between Dorman and Bowen Roads.  If anyone from MIVA is available to help marshal or even sweep on their bikes, from about 3:15pm-3:45pm, your help would be appreciated.

The event registration, if you know of anyone interested, is at https://ireg.nanaimo.ca/Activities/ActivitiesAdvSearch.asp and the barcode for registering is 135431.

Please contact Byron at btrajan <at> hotmail.com for more information, thanks!

We would like to invite you to the 2015 Nanaimo Bike Information Nightwhich is being held at Bowen Park Complex on Thursday January 22nd 2015 from 7 to 9pm. The evening will include updates by the city and other organizations on the extension of the E&N trail, a new Bicycle Map,  the Bicycling Master plan,  and other bicycling topics & issues. We hope to generate a wide interest and to get feedback and lots of questions.
We are inviting City of Nanaimo Mayor & Council and senior staff to be present, to hear any concerns, ideas and updates and we want to see as many people as possible, cyclist and non-cyclists. This is the night to speak on the topic of bicycling and how we can improve, expand and excel at creating a safe, enjoyable community for all.

We are looking at several bike stores showcasing some of the new for 2015 merchandise, and we asked for presentations by the various bicycling groups and organizations in the city and the district of Nanaimo.  Poster is attached and also available at this link: www.bikesense.org/bin/
