Lots of bike riders in WSB-land, we’ve learned, so we’re sharing another announcement from the city – this time, seeking members for the mayor’s Bicycle Advisory Board:

Mayor Greg Nickels is seeking candidates for the Seattle
Bicycle Advisory Board. The board consists of 11 members who serve
two-year terms in a volunteer capacity. The board’s primary role is to
advise the mayor, City Council and all city departments and offices on
matters related to bicycling and the implementation of the Seattle
Bicycle Master Plan.

Specifically, board members seek to improve safety, access, and
mobility for bicyclists. Board members contribute to planning and
developing projects, as well as evaluating and recommending changes in
city policies, design guidelines and regulations.

Individuals selected must have perspective, experience, and talents
which will enhance the board’s expertise and effectiveness. If you are
interested in being considered, send a letter of interest and resume
which demonstrates your knowledge, experience, and insights into
bicycle-related current issues.

Applicants must reside within the Seattle city limits. The board meets
in City Hall on the first Wednesday of each month from 6 to 8 p.m.

Those interested in being considered should email a letter of interest
and resume by July 6, 2009, to Douglas.Cox@Seattle.gov or by mail to:
