Re: Invitation: Menlo Park Bike Adventure this Saturday (April 21)

We definitely encourage you to ride the last leg - from Cafe Zoe to City Hall!
We should be at Cafe Zoe around 10:45 or so and we will be leaving for City Hall at approximately 11:20.
Note: The kids participating will be in a class/camp type program, so if you are planning to ride with us we'll likely ask you to
follow behind the kids so as not to disturb their learning.
Thanks again!Jen

> Dear City Council,
I'm following up on my public comment to formally invite you to join Parents for Safe Routes, Menlo Velo, Cafe Zoe, and WheelKids
Palo Alto this Saturday for our pilot Menlo Park Bike Adventure!
League Cycling Instructors from WheelKids will be coaching 10 4-5th graders in safe road-sharing behavior as they ride to popular
destinations in Menlo Park. We are hiding bike-themed prizes in various locations around town and will stop for a snack at Cafe
Zoe.Officer Mary Ferguson will join us outside council chambers for a debrief at the end of the ride.
We are hoping that this can be a template for future bike education events in Menlo Park, and as such, we'd love to have your
support and participation.
You are welcome to join us on bikes for any of the journey–but especially for the last segment between Cafe Zoe and the Civic
Center. (This is the route that many students from the Willows must ride each day to get to school and we think it needs some
work.)
Please let me and Jen know if you have questions and/or will be joining us for this ride. Thank you so much for your support of
safe routes to school!
Warm regards,
Katie
