Celebrating the Fairfax County Bicycle Master Plan

photo 1(6)Herndon bike injury advocate Doug Landau was honored to attend an “invitation only” celebration of the passage of the Fairfax County Bicycle Master Plan.  The event’s venue — the Wiehle-Reston East Metro Community Room at the Reston Metro Plaza, in Reston, Virginia — was perfect for this cycling celebration.

The reception was planned to thank those who assisted in the passage of the county’s Bicycle Master Plan.

Fairfax Advocates for Better Bicycling (FABB) was instrumental in garnering support. The Fairfax County Bicycle Master Plan was adopted by unanimous vote of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors last October.  It is the first-ever comprehensive master bike plan for the largest county in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Here are some photos of the reception, where guests enjoyed down-home food, good beer, and live music.
