1. New simpler e-mail address

Need to write to the Amuta but can't remember the long jmbicyclist address ?
It's just gotten easier. The new address is:

jbike@...

2. Invitation to all cyclists to contribute to the newsletter

Shalom everyone. Riding our bicycles we've all come across hazards that
endanger the cycling public. Some of you have taken action, like Tom Harris
who had a problem with an unfinished and dangerous sidewalk in the Har
Hotzvim area. He got hold of the Iriya and kept on nagging them until they
fixed it. I'm sure there are many stories like that. We would like to hear
them. Share those success or God forbid failure stories with all of us. To
encourage you to write in your stories we will give a prize to the best
story. Let's make December success or failure story time for safe cycling.

The topic is: "How I got a hazard fixed up."

Or, "How in spite of all my efforts I didn't get a cycling hazard fixed up."

Send your stories to: jbike@...

Have a great day. See you. Your chairman. Leon Gork.
