The VULC monthly meeting was at a weird time (7:15pm) at Creekside CC and wow, y'all turned UP! We had a full house and a good crowd on Zoom too.

We take December off, but put January 16th into your calendar -- that's when the next one will be (but online only).

The Vancouver budget will be devastating to services so many rely upon and to the hardworking employees delivering them, but here's one tiny sliver of good news: the scheme to spend millions to widen Beach Avenue and tear out the bike lane appears to have been dropped from the Capital Plan!

The weather doesn't look super amazing right now for our Sunday ride to Steveston but also not rainy enough to postpone. A final call will be made tomorrow morning, but if you have a ticket and decide not to come, please cancel it.

The VULC has its GBBW ride to Steveston this weekend. Please note that this is *not* a rain or shine event. If the forecast calls for sustained rain, the event will be postponed. A decision will be made on Saturday morning (Sept 27th). Attendees will be notified by email if it is postponed.
