Maui Bicycling League Established To Help Make Maui Friendlier and Safer for Bicyclists and Pedestrians New Membership Meeting to be Held on December 19, 2014
MA’ALAEA, MAUI, HI— December 9, 2014 — Ever wished that Maui could be a safer place for adults, kids and seniors to bicycle or walk?
If so, the newly established Maui chapter of the nonprofit Hawaii Bicycling League invites you to become a member. Please join this new chapter — known as the Maui Bicycling League — and also attend its first membership meeting on Friday, December 19, 2014 from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm at Pacific Whale Foundation’s Discovery Center Classrooms at the Ma’alaea Harbor Ships. The meeting’s agenda will include electing a Steering Committee from the membership and discussing the organization’s goals and plans.
The public is invited. Membership applications to join the new Maui Bicycling League will be available at the meeting. The membership fee is $35 for adults; $25 for seniors, students or the military. You can also join online at www.hbl.org
“Bicycling is an activity that supports health, fitness and a healthier environment, and Maui has the perfect year-round climate for bicycling — but our island offers very few safe places for children or adults to ride,” says Saman Dias, one of the group’s organizers. “We heard from many people who said that they would ride more often but feel they would be putting themselves in danger by riding on our roads.”
