*Pace Bike Share Program Launches in Albuquerque!*

You’re invited to the official launch of Pace Bike Share, Thursday, April
19 at 10:00 a.m. at Civic Plaza, and enjoy bike share demos, giveaways, and
more! This program will provide 250 bicycles for residents, visitors, and
students to make on-demand trips with just a tap on their smartphones. With
Pace, users will still enjoy the predictability of dedicated bike share
hubs in key locations, but they will now be allowed to lock the bicycles to
public bicycle racks as well. Download the free Pace Bike Share app from
the App Store or Google Play. Learn more at www.riometro.org

*Won’t You Be My Neighbor?*

Are there senior citizens in your neighborhood? Why not get to know them
and see if there’s anything you can do to help them? Seniors often have
mobility issues or may not have dependable transportation, so offer to help
pull weeds, take their trash to the curb on collection day, take them to
the grocery store, or even just leave them a note with your telephone
number. Sometimes knowing there is someone to call is all the help folks
need!
