UPCOMING EVENTS: Monthly meeting on February 25, 2025 from 5:30-6:30pm at the EMU Bike Program.
This month our focus is "The Squeaky Wheel", how to go about improving infrastructure. We will have a special Q&A with Willow Hamilton, a dedicated bike commuter and member of Eugene's Transportation Planning team. We will also spotlight some of our very own club members to learn more about their commutes. There will be socializing and complimentary tea and snacks at this free event. See you there!
