Cycling skills workshop from SG

Together with Gabriola Recreation, we are offering a cycling skills mini-series for building confidence and riding safely on Gabriola. This clinic starts with a quick mechanical check to make sure your bike is running smoothly. After some skill-building practice, participants will follow facilitator Scott Colbourne onto some easy trails and parts of the roads that people tend to find challenging.

Two sessions: Saturday: May 25th and Saturday June 1st from 2 – 4 pm.  ($40) At the Gabriola Recreation office

Fall Fair, the C-12 booth

Climate-12 Action had a table at the 17-Sep Fall Fair, where a hundred people stopped to talk, and many cast their dot-vote on the most important “Action area” for the project. Interest all round, but Food Security and Water were, not surprisingly, the top picks.
