I am asking New Mexico's Governor to add Bicycle Shops as essential businesses allowed to stay open during this health emergency.  There is a form you can fill out and submit to tell our Governor Bicycle Shops are essential.  Takes less than one minute.  https://p2a.co/KN3VqYX

Also Las Cruces Representative Angelica Rubio would like to contact the Governor's legal team on the bicycle community's behalf.  She was asking if there is a bicycle shop collective or industry association that could speak for all of our retailers and/or bicycle repair businesses statewide.  Does anyone know if such an organization or representative exists?  If not we can organize one if it is feasible, or individual shops could write in, or we could organize by region. Representative Rubio thought it would be most effective to make our case in a group.

Most states have been successful getting bicycle repair shops listed as essential businesses.  Let us know your ideas, or you can email me offlist at bikeyogi@gmail.com 

Thank you, 

Mark
