Fayette Biking for Life is hosting an open meeting Thursday, Feb. 16, from 7-8:30 p.m. at the Fayette County Public Library in Fayetteville.

An information exchange will enable attendees to learn more about cycling related information and give the club an opportunity to hear what you may be looking for in your local cycling organization. Membership information will also be available. Light refreshments will be served.

The meeting will include information on how to safely ride on the road; use of helmets, mirrors, and positioning on the road; “on the road maintenance” (with hands on practice); and what is needed to carry while biking. The many uses for the bicycle besides exercise will be covered, along with information about a special ride day for local scouts to aid them in earning their biking merit badge. Speakers and guests will have some interesting biking stories and experiences to pass on. Information will also be available about all the biking activities that are available including state and local rides.

For further information, call George Chambers at 770-460-8349.
