2e journ�e de sentiers 2008 du club Lessard

En ce beau matin du 17 ao�t 2008, pr�s de 35 b�n�voles du club Lessard bicycle se sont r�unis aux Sentiers du moulin pour une 2e journ�e de sentiers estivale. L'objectif de la journ�e �tait d'apporter quelques corrections � la poule-�-ski afin que l'eau s'�coule mieux ainsi que de poursuivre les travaux dans le nouveau sentier.

� 9h, les b�n�voles se sont pr�sent�s, suite aux consignes de s�curit�, le groupe s'est divis� en 4. Les plus motiv�s ont rejoint l'�quipe � DSA qui avait beaucoup d'enrochement � compl�ter. Encore une fois, nous avions la chance d'avoir beaucoup d'outils sp�cialis�s, soit ceux de VMQCA et de l'ADSVMQ.

Du gros travail jusqu'� midi 15 puis le traditionnel d�ner hot-dog avant d'all� essayer les sentiers :-)

Un gros merci aux club Lessard bicycle qui �tait encore une fois nombreux aux rendez-vous !!!

Statistiques de la journ�e:
� Corrections majeures dans 3 secteurs de la poule-�-ski et dans 1 secteur du nouveau sentier.
� 35 b�n�voles du club Lessard bicycle.
� 105 heures de travaux dans les sentiers.

Total de b�n�volat 2008 : 264h

SRAM will also establish the SRAM Cycling Advocacy Fund which will support advocacy in the U.S., Europe and Asia on policy issues affecting cycling infrastructure and the bicycle industry. The fund will initially be capitalized with a healthy US$10 million and will be paid out approximately $2 million per year for five years based on advice from established advocacy groups such as Bikes Belong. SRAM expects to have a grant request process in place by this November and additional details will be available in approximately 60 days.

"Bikes are a constructive transportation and recreational solution," said Day. "Governments everywhere are recognizing their value to address traffic congestion, environmental concerns, health promotion and high gas costs. The fund will support grass roots advocacy efforts focused on improving cycling infrastructure."

"With market leadership comes responsibility," added Moore. "We are pleased to see SRAM establishing the SRAM Cycling Advocacy Fund, which will give the industry a vehicle to highlight issues of importance to the cycling public."
