Hi All,
In the process of planning our regional/mini Bike!Bike! in Boise, we had an idea we'd like to put out and see if there's interest. In addition to the conference, we're considering leading an LCI Training session http://bikeleague.org/content/become-instructor for any attendees who would like to get certified.
What this would entail/require: LCI candidates would have to
- attend a Traffic Skills 101 class at home (Start your search here
http://bikeleague.org/bfa/search/map?bfaq=--might need to do a little digging in your community) and bring your completion certificate. 2) stay in Boise 3 days after the conference (we provide housing) 3) pay $300 registration fee
Both the "regional" conference and the LCI training would be open invitation to anyone in the bike!bike! community (though the LCI status only applies to U.S. residents.)
How many here might be interested? I'm asking because we'd have to start the process soon, to schedule a trainer and get the League on board. I'm happy to answer any questions for anyone who's unsure what LCI status entails or whether it's worth it. I'd say, in my experience, it's definitely worth having.
Cheers!
