Susan Peithman
OBRA -
Some of you may know me as Susan Peithman, bike racer. But I am also Susan
Peithman, BTA Statewide Advocate. The BTA is hosting two member forums this
evening. One in Salem (at the downtown library) and one in Portland (at the
Whole Foods in the Pearl).
If you live in the Salem area and don't have plans already, please come and
talk with me about your bike issues and how the BTA is working to make
Oregon a better place to live work and ride. You don't have to be a member
to attend but please RSVP to so we know how many
people to expect.
Detailed info below.
Cheers,
Susan Peithman
