Chest-compatible Chrome bags?

My mom gave me a great birthday gift: a backpack from Chrome. Unfortunately I can't really use it. The chest strap, while adjustable to an extent, seems to rest in exactly the wrong spot relative to…Continue

The second annual Women Bike Chicago Day of Dialogue and Demonstration is in the planning stage at this moment.  Date will be announced in the next couple of days.  Anyone who wants to join the planning group?

Also, we want to schedule a couple of informal social get-togethers in March.  Anyone willing to help with that?  With the winter we have been having, not everyone will want to bike, but lots of women who bike still want to spend time with other women who bike. :-)

I have been riding for years. I hadn't heard about last year's Women Bike Chicago event! Sounds great.

I am betting that Justyna will be at the Rapid Transit table.

We should have our flyer--designed by the wonderful folks at Active Trans--available on Saturday.  At the very least we will have it at the Chicago Cycling Club table and the Chainlink table.  Anne Alt will be at the Chicago Cycling Club table for a while, Susan Levin will be at the Chainlink table for a while, Jane Healy will be participating in a presentation about raising the next generation of cyclists at 11:30, Jennifer James and Jane will be at the kids' craft table, I hear that Anika Byerly and Ash Lottes will be hanging out--maybe around the cargo bikes . . . A great chance to meet one another and touch base.

We will have our "volunteer wish list" in a couple of days and I will pass it on here.  I might even have more information on Saturday.  Will be at the Chainlink table at the Bike Swap between 1 and 3.  Stop by!  At the very least it will be nice to meet those of you whom I do not already know.

Planning is moving along for the event!  Guys, do you know women who might be interested in attending or in volunteering?  Point them here or to the blog.
