Mon Oct 4 6:30pm Party with TXDoT

I know most of the people on this list find transportation
infrastructure fascinating, but here's a chance to bring your friends
out so they can get a taste of what you do with your spare time for
their cycling benefit.

Austin Cycling Association (ACA) October Meeting

How do you make a TXDoT public meeting fun?

1.    Raffle off a Trek District bicycle to raise funds for ACA's
cycling education programs

2.    Add some door prizes

3.    And bring a happy hour filled with snacks and drinks!

Join us at 6:30 p.m.-9pm Monday, Oct. 4, at Mellow Johnny's Bike Shop
to hear from Texas Department of Transportation (TXDoT), Capital Area
Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO), Texas Transportation
Institute (TTI) and City of Austin officials answer questions about
our road projects and how we can work together to make them more bike
and pedestrian friendly.

Have a barrier on your favorite cycling route?
Want a highway shoulder swept?
Why should you answer that bike survey that showed up in your inbox?
Have ideas on making cycling more accessible to Central Texans?
Curious about that Prop 1 bond package?
Maybe you might even want to complain just a little bit?

The October ACA meeting has traditionally been the TXDoT's official
public meeting with the cycling community. This year we've decided to
make it more informative and fun! We've invited TXDoT to present along
with the City of Austin Bike/Ped program and other agencies that
produce cycling infrastructure and education programs at the state,
regional and local levels. We want to demystify how are dollars are
spent and decisions are made plus this is our chance to give these
folks some constructive input on bike projects past, present and
future.

Now for the fun part! The public meeting will be followed by a social
hour with door prizes, snacks and adult beverages. Door prize tickets
will be given out during the public meeting so come early and get your
voice heard. Trek Bicycles has donated a Trek District urban bike to
be raffled off to raise funds to support ACA's education programs.
