VOTE FOR JASON DEN HOLLANDER

I have been a BV member for many years and I'm running
for Council to help get 'more people cycling more
often'! Growing up with a dutch father and living
there as a child has given me a passion for all things
'bike' and the many benefits that all can enjoy from
cycling.

I have diverse cycling interests ranging from my daily
CBD commute, riding with my wife and daughters, long
bunch rides with friends into the hills and club
racing.

I have an active involvement in my local
BUG(Boroondara), the committee of Hawthorn Cycling
Club and school cycling activities gives me a vast
insight into the cycling community and it's needs.

I am committed to environmental sustainability and
community consultation, both within and beyond current
Bicycle Victoria membership. I will further the
formation of partnerships with local cycling groups,
councils and other groups maintaining communication
with the whole community.

I am committed to safer, well maintained and connected
metropolitan bike paths across council areas.

Insurance is a key reason why Bicycle Victoria members
join and I will make sure that this is improved
further in the current financial insurance
environment.

I support an integrated approach to bicycle
development in all of Victoria, the potential for bike
trails as well as bike lanes in regional towns is
positive and the time is right.

I will offer a younger 'fresh' perspective to the
council to help BV build onto its current growth and
assist our cycling community to develop into the
future.

Please vote for me in October in the Bicycle Victoria
elections. To contact me, email: fdutch@..., ph:
