The Chainlink

Hi everyone,

Please note that we will celebrate and pass out Caribou Coffee, tea and Eli's Cheesecake outside Active Trans HQ at 9 W. Hubbard (State/Hubbard, look for the tent).

Please spread the word about the location change, thanks!

Hope to see lots of winter bike commuters there,

There were quite a few people there last year. Will there be room around 9 W Hubbard, or is the street closed to traffic?
We're going to do our best, Adam...we'll bring a couple of bike racks down and will set up the tent in a parking space on the street (we'll pay for parking, of course). But most of the celebration will be on the sidewalk.

New this year was a fee for Daley Plaza that wasn't in our budget so we're doing our best to still make the winter bike commuting celebration happen.

Thanks,

are there bike winter tshirts? i think there should be. .
We would love to partner with www.bikewinter.org and pass out winter biking T-shirts...that's something we'll consider for future years.

As I mentioned above, budget is an issue. This event is not supported by cash sponsorship, despite our best efforts to sell sponsorship for it. Obviously, this is a super challenging time to secure sponsorship dollars.

We'll keep working on it, of course, because we think it's important to celebrate winter bike commuting. We are glad Caribou and Eli's are willing to donate hot drinks and sweet treats.

We will keep T-shirts in mind for 2011, etc. Sorry we can't pull it off this year...hope you'll still stop by.

Thanks,
Ethan, with Active Trans
