As a result, our National Bicycle Greenway effort got lost in the shuffle. This was so, because the volunteers needed to make this colossal event happen were well below historical levels. It was so bad in fact, that the directors from the last two years,<b>Larissa, Yousef and Chris<\/b>, pictured here, were pressed into service.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Nor was the helping hand they lent a few extra hours of their time. They were all in sleep deprivation mode when I took this picture at <b>Grocery Outlet<\/b>where they had come to stock up on after event party food. Yousef \u00a0told me he got two hours of sleep and when I asked Chris how much sleep he got the night before, he looked at me with his eyes half open and muttered \u201cwhat last night?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">I only hope\u00a0<strong>Larissa<\/strong>\u00a0is able to remember that I asked her if she would help Yousef and Chris with our <a href=\"http:\/\/bikeroute.com\/NBGFest\" target=\"_blank\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?hl=en&amp;q=http:\/\/bikeroute.com\/NBGFest&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1494999869698000&amp;usg=AFQjCNE_NTMdRd6jpXHU6ieAPsGkD-GlfA\" rel=\"noopener\"><b>Davis NBG Fest<\/b> <\/a>because she said\u00a0<strong>YES<\/strong>!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">I had a funny feeling that such\u00a0difficulties were present when the application for our booth did not seem to get accepted. I wasn\u2019t too worried about this because I knew\u00a0they knew I was speaking and that our booth would be connected to my performance. I also knew they wanted us there with such a presence and if all else \u00a0were to fail that \u00a0I still had an inside track to\u00a0the people at\u00a0the top.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">And yet none of that mattered when it became game time. By the time 3 PM rolled around on Friday and\u00a0it was time for me to speak, there was no audience\u00a0for a number of reasons. I feel bad for <b>Sierra Lewandowski <\/b>who kept apologizing to me when no one showed up. And yet there again how was it supposed to be possible for people to know what was taking place on the dome stage that had been\u00a0constructed for her in the middle of a little used part of the quad when our voices could not be heard by the crowds 30 yards away? Nor for that matter did a printed program of events seem to exist.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">A first time event for Sierra, loaded down with the overbearing demands of university school work, she had been too busy getting acts together for her stage that there were little details that couldn&#8217;t help but be overlooked.\u00a0Nor did she have a committee helping her. All of which added up to the fact she could not get the projector to play a video that she had found about me to work,\u00a0there was no sound equipment to amplify our voices and\u00a0<span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: inherit;\">no way for people to know that there was<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: 'source sans pro', sans-serif;\">something<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000; font-family: inherit;\">\u00a0more taking place than a few people talking to each other inside of our off the beaten track stage.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">I did however speak for what amounted to the between five and 10 people who all sat within ear shot. Because my performance was not being tracked for posterity, my mind wandered to how this disappointment could be salvaged. After my unexciting show was complete the NBG light hit a false summit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Sierra said that I could have a have a booth after all. She had finally made contact with the festival organizer who had told her where we needed to be located. She pointed to an area where a couple of tables had been set up not far away from where her isolated stage\u00a0was located. My heart sunk even lower.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">There was no foot traffic. It was on the lawn where I knew we would be overlooked and there would be no dignity for our mission. I made the decision\u00a0to wait until next year when we have staff that can work more closely with the Whole Earth\u00a0people to make sure we are not overlooked<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-\">\n<div class=\"m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mf m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mj\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"12856\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.bikeroute.com\/NationalBicycleGreenwayNews\/?attachment_id=12856\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.bikeroute.com\/NationalBicycleGreenwayNews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Screen-Shot-2017-05-15-at-10.12.28-AM.png?fit=538%2C536&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"538,536\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Screen Shot 2017-05-15 at 10.12.28 AM\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.bikeroute.com\/NationalBicycleGreenwayNews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Screen-Shot-2017-05-15-at-10.12.28-AM.png?fit=538%2C536&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-size-full m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-wp-image-12856 m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-alignleft CToWUd a6T alignright\" tabindex=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/ci5.googleusercontent.com\/proxy\/gYZ6caWq-hG7AFbq18dsLYvB2y-w7yW69buh4k9XtNMndy8j3a_n-hKpXx24n_slsgHiEP6VQ-YctcjtxnaO3QuZusyUSdmoK0Jq4yonv4FxFj0t7mx0Uid32LcJgI64FfaHF47T9DBYT3MCz0NRCW_y8XGfKmsH0IAWo6jXuQ9TypNAstCoBR3XyDYl4oWOt92W7V5iBQjI86ttmUz4ZssBJkuJ7J-2nP3pdTzAYrgW=s0-d-e1-ft#http:\/\/i0.wp.com\/bikeroute.com\/NationalBicycleGreenwayNews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Screen-Shot-2017-05-15-at-10.12.28-AM.png?zoom=0.75&amp;resize=538%2C536\" alt=\"Screen Shot 2017-05-15 at 10.12.28 AM\" width=\"538\" height=\"536\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.bikeroute.com\/NationalBicycleGreenwayNews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Screen-Shot-2017-05-15-at-10.12.28-AM.png?w=538&amp;ssl=1 538w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.bikeroute.com\/NationalBicycleGreenwayNews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Screen-Shot-2017-05-15-at-10.12.28-AM.png?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 538px) 100vw, 538px\" \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mf m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mj\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mf m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mj\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mf m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mj\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mf m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mj\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">(B)\u00a0Treasure Island to Oakland City Hall Ride!!<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-\">\n<div class=\"m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mf m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mj\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-\">\n<div class=\"m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mf m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_1mj\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong><span class=\"m_2023878634814684774m_-2908882640051627276gmail-_247o\">Heather Normandale<\/span><\/strong>, a world class musician from Oakland who I met at the UCD Whole Earth Festival after she sat in with a friend\u2019s band on Sunday, may join us on this ride!
