Ciclovia 2019 at MCC

Waco Friends of Peace/Climate had a table at Ciclovia 2019 at MCC on November 9th.  "Ciclovia " translates "bikeway", and it promoted biking and other forms of exercise and wellness.  There was reasonable attendance for their first year.

 Our table provided free reusable shopping bags and climate information cards. Our quiz of five questions covered bikes, E-bikes, transportation and the climate crisis.  We provided lots of free materials, collected email addresses and challenged/educated with our difficult test. All test subjects received bumper stickers as prizes.

 Many thanks to our new member, Monty Suffern, for volunteering and for great assistance. Thanks also to Ruben Salazar for organizing the Ciclovia at MCC.
