February Group Mtg. (Short for MEETING!)
February was named after the Latin term februum, which means purification, via the purification ritual Februa held on February 15 in the old Roman calendar. January and February were the last two months to be added to the Roman calendar, since the Romans originally considered winter a monthless period. -wikipedia (duh)
January Jones is almost over so I guess that means it must be time for a February Group Meeting. You may ask- where was the January Group Meeting? Well I don’t believe in January, I think it’s just the back of December.
Sawyer Conference Room Tuesday February 9th from 1-2PM Food Bikes etc. etc.
Gearing Up! (Pun!)
New Semester- and for the E-Board of Suffolk Bikes it is our last! We are really excited to start this week- the beginning of a semester is always fun, new classes, new rooms, classes with old friends and soon to be buds. Life is really a lot of fun until midterms come out of nowhere like a ninja crossed with a stealth bomber.
It’s also a cool time to change, open up a new chapter, maybe if you’re really cool you can try to mix things up- you could shave your beard. John.
I’m definitely excited. Four years at Suffolk and I feel wiser- I believe that enough to at least publish it on the internet (also strongly influenced by my desire to use Yoda pizza pic.)
But I really do feel optimistic and confident about this Semester of Suffolk Bikes. The Winter will be slow and not many are riding but for those who are we will definitely be rocking snow rides and more. We will be building up enthusiasm and our marketing/outreach campaigns. We’ve got some cool new supplies and we will just be riding (HA!) through the rest of the Winter onto Spring, graduation, and as much bike fun as possible. Check back for events and if you haven’t already- familiarize yourself with MySuffolk and SUconnect so you don’t fall behind. As always keep up with facebook for group rides and other bike friendly fun around town. See you in the streets:)
