Education & Outreach

   HUB delegation at DNV council meeting in Feb (Antje)
   HUB delegation at West Van council meeting in May (Peter)

- here is a proposed plan for the presentation:

Heather - 5 minutes on benefits to business from an increase in bicycling with the presentation based on the slides prepared by Erin on the HUB website (https://bikehub.ca/sites/default/files/imce/business.bikes_.benefits.pdf); Peter - 2 minutes on suggested improvements in bicycle infrastructure; and Rep from HUB - 3 minutes on bike friendly business services available from HUB.

These allotted times are initial suggestions. I propose that we have a dry run at our monthly meeting on the evening of 2 May.
