As someone familiar with the work of Active Trans, you know that we like to put on great events that engage more people in cycling.

We’re thrilled to put on these events each year and we love working to make them better. This year, in addition to working to improve our existing events, we’re developing new ideas for other events that bring people together and showcase our vibrant region.
To do this, we need your help. Please share your thoughts about our biking events--both existing events and potential new ones. Complete this bike event survey and you’ll be entered into a raffle to win a $100 REI gift certificate!
If you enter your email address and some simple demographics, you'll also be eligible to receive a $2 discount on 2013 MB Financial Bank Bike the Drive (Sunday, May 26). The survey should take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete and you must complete it by Wednesday, November 7.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

We have nearly 800 responses so far and, to be up front with you, a bunch of old people are gonna impact what kind of events Active Trans does unless you take this survey.
Don't trust anyone over 40, except me, and please take our survey now!

Permalink Reply by blair_ on November 2, 2012 at 4:56pm People over 40 obviously don't have opinions any longer.
Permalink Reply by Mike Zumwalt on November 2, 2012 at 6:15pm The over 40 was tongue in cheek (I'm hoping) but what I really,really want is more corporate sponsorship promoting driving to an event to ride a bike, eating McDonalds then driving home. ???
Biking is a lifestyle
A choice
A necessity
but hey we all do what we need to do.
Exploit the trend/movement make some money then pile all your stuff in an SUV/cargo van and go home.
And...since you posted on the chainlink then linked to a survey instead of then going to Active Trans how about returning to the Chainlink page?

Old Folks Rule!
