We held the 2024 Port Phillip BUG AGM in December. Thanks retiring committee members Liz, Luisiana, and Simon. New committee is: vice president Julie Clutterbuck, secretary Ben Richardson, treasurer Dennis Muoy, general member Mathieu Cadet. Membership fees will increase by $5 in the coming year.
Plans for 2025:
Our advocacy program will continue. Our social rides program will be on hiatus. We'll continue to meet the first Tuesday of the month, either in person or online-- check our calendar for up to date location.
We’ll be staying in contact via our email newsletter (sign up here); the bug blog; facebook; Insta https://www.instagram.com/portphillipbicycleusers/; and mastodon. We are no longer updating our twitter/x account, but Shane Lee https://x.com/shavo27 is a good source of local bike news.
We’ll be running rides with the new and incumbent councillors in early 2025, dates will be on our socials as we arrange them, please join us for that. And we’re meeting local Labor MPs Nina Taylor and Ryan Bachelor in January to talk about getting safe bike lanes over St Kilda hill.
