Question Title

Question Title

* 2. At what e-mail address and phone number would you like to be contacted for additional information about the LCI Seminar?

Question Title

* 3. Do you wish to attend an LCI Seminar between now and the end of 2014?

Question Title

* 4. Seminar Dates and Locations: Which dates and locations are possible for you and do you have a strong preference for one of the options?

If you have not already taken a traffic Skills 101 class, one is required some time prior to the start of the Seminar. Approximately 10 hours preparation time are needed in the 30 days before the seminar. The seminar itself is 23 hours over a weekend. Approximately 8 hours of that are outside on a bike. (Could be rough in Nov)

Consider that participants must be League of American Bicyclists members and pay the $300 tuition at least 30 days prior to the Seminar start date. A November, 2013 seminar would require membership and tuition by mid October, 2013.

If the full tuition is not feasible for you, please still check your interest and availability, and include a note in the comments section; assistance might be available.
