At the Kapiti Cycling Club we're also trying to humanise cyclists and trying to remain positive around the normally extremely negative relationship between cyclist and other motorists - with a couple of advocacy initiatives... <br /><br />http://www.kapiticyclingclub.co.nz/index.php/advocacy1/drop-of-thanks<br /><br />and<br /><br />http://www.kapiticyclingclub.co.nz/index.php/advocacy1/note-of-thanks<br /><br />We did a drop of thanks of biscuits up around Te Horo (where we race regularly and a lot of people bike). The response was fantastic from the residents and you could feel the difference. We're about to do another drop of thanks to the residents in Reikorangi - where there has been issues between bikes and motorists in the past.<br /><br />We had one person who got in touch and said that after getting the cyclist baked biscuits and the message of thanks that went with it - they had completely changed their attitude towards cyclists.... That's a big win!<br /><br />Bouyed by that success we also started the Note of Thanks initiative where we send a postcard of thanks to companies for specific acts of courtesy.. Just started that one - but it's going well.<br />Adrian McKenziehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14537114823167851943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15091028.post-895543611393803492015-08-26T22:27:26.775+12:002015-08-26T22:27:26.775+12:00Nice work, Jeff.Nice work, Jeff.Olihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12870524373958344954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15091028.post-91031403283184620022015-08-26T20:15:32.126+12:002015-08-26T20:15:32.126+12:00Well put, it's like a game of tag and we are a...Well put, it's like a game of tag and we are always 'it'!Stephenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06468862913308464060noreply@blogger.com
