    It will be QUITE warm tomorrow, especially on the way back and at the market... bring a hat, sunscreen and water bottles - (tip- fill half of one or both your bottles with water and freeze overnight!)  Also be sure to bring a sturdy LOCK, as Sharing Wheels is no longer at the market with their bike corral, sadly (that was a decision made by the market producers, not Sharing Wheels!).  

    Next month the market is moving to Wetmore in downtown Everett! 

    Ride starts at 10 tomorrow, meet behind the mall near the LA Fitness, back corner of the parking lot  about 9:45.

    The Market was willing, but Sharing Wheels asked for more money than the Market was will to pay.

    The market organizers are willing to have Sharing Wheels set up bike parking for free. But we want bike parking to be valued, and it's a lot of effort. Sharing Wheels  asked the Port to pay a small fee to cover our costs for bike parking, since they are collecting money from cars. No response from the Port. The new market location downtown will also be easy to bike to. It would be great to have people lobbying for secure bike parking there.

    I agree, bike parking has value.  But wonder who will be in charge after they move into town then?  I'm guessing it won't make any difference now to lobby the Port since the market will be changing locations?   We weren't the only ones yesterday scrambling to find a section of fence to lock up too.   I'd be MORE than happy to pay a fee to park my bike safely too.
