or Sunday-go-to church clothes (as long as you don't sit by me if you stink). If a large enough group wants to bike to the meeting, we may be able to arrange for a little police security for them, as there are usually police officers on duty around City Hall anyway. If not and we get the turnout we need, we can provide our own with volunteers willing to watch over them during meeting. They may even let us park them in the garage or even the main lobby (off to the side, of course) since there's not adequate bike parking at City Hall, especially for a group.

'Twould nice to have a large mass ride to the meeting, even if just for a mile or two (maybe from the riverfront park to city hall or something). Maybe it could arranged to follow one of the proposed bike routes, even if just for a few blocks?
If we could count on enough riders to look impressive, maybe we could get some TV coverage of it . . . that would help the cause--bicycle riders march on city hall, etc. . . .
Somebody experienced in organizing rides should volunteer to be in charge of it, though (that counts me out . . . ).
Moving the meeting back until August 7th gives us some more time to organize things like this.
