Ok folks, here we are at the last of three stories asking you to help me plan my weekend. So far the only comment I've gotten is Joe Linton encouraging me to go to the LADOT and DCP report on the City Bike Plan, which didn't even make my list of workshops which I was most interested in attending. If nothing else, I half expected Spokker to vote for me to go to a bunch of sessions that didn't have anything to do with bicycles.
So here are the workshops that I'm most interested in covering for the third and last session. If you want me to cover one, let me know in the comments section and I'll go to the one with the most votes. You can vote on the other sessions here and here.
