The Information Age is upon us. When you go to the Alachua Public Library next time, here are some things you might want to check out.
Gainesville Cycling Club (GCC) Newsletter - The Main Alachua library now posts our newsletter in the magazine racks. The current issue is on the shelf, older issues are maintained under the shelf in an orange folder. If you are a new member of the GCC and were wanting to read the older newsletter issues, now you can.
BICYCLE: A CELEBRATION OF THE INVENTION - This excellent, general video about bicycles was recently donated to the library by the GCC. If you are at all interested in bicycles then you should check out this video. It covers many aspects of the subject such as history, industry rivalry, celebrities, speed records, greenways and the future of the bicycle. Produced by the BBC. About 2 hours.
EFFECTIVE CYCLING - This video covers various aspects of riding a bicycle in traffic as a vehicle used for commuting, rather than just for recreation. Many good safety hints. About an hour. Another donation by the GCC, soon to be available in the library. Produced by the League of American Bicyclists (LAB).
If you have seen a bicycle video that you thought was the greatest video on the subject you ever saw, you should let us know about it. In the future the GCC will be donating more videos to the library to help share bike knowledge with the community, and to promote the visibility of our club. If you want to let us know about a good candidate video, just contact any of the Board Members and let one us know about it.
