FMCPT Members and friends:
 
Spring is here again to start another great season to use our beautiful new trail!  To kick-off this season, FMCPT will be participating in the London First Friday event on May 5th from 5 pm until 9 pm.  The theme for this event is Outdoor Recreation.  The location will be on 2nd Street between Oak Street and the alley east of Main Street.  That section of 2nd Street will be close to traffic during that period.  Traffic on Main Street will be maintained.
 
The City is arranging for refreshments and entertainment.  Current plans call for a Bicycle Rodeo on the city parking lot at Oak and 2nd Street.  Our new Trail Sentinels will inspect the bikes before riders can participate in the rodeo.  FMCPT will have an Informational Booth at the lot to talk with people that want to know more about the trail through Madison County.  In addition to this, some folks plan to bring their antique or unusual bikes to the area to ride or explain their uniqueness to interested people.
 
I would like to invite all of you to attend the event to support our downtown area of London.  If you would like to bring your tandem or recumbent bike to the event and/or assist at the Informational Booth, that would be most appreciated.  If you have any questions, please let me know.
 
I hope you will participate in, or attend this event.  We would like to see you and have a chance to chat.
 
Sincerely Yours,
 
Wayne Roberts, president
