I am a proud resident of Newport Beach who has appreciated the opportunity to serve the City through my roles on EQAQ and most recently on the Bicycle Safety Committee. In particular, my experience on the Bicycle Safety Committee has been especially rewarding, working on projects including sharrows in Corona Del Mar, bicycle route mapping, signage and education, and the Committee's annual report. This experience has allowed me to become well- versed and active in bicycle safety issues and to develop relationships with City leaders as we work together to improve bicycle safety citywide. My experience and relationships will be invaluable in helping the City to develop its Bicycle Master Plan. As an experienced cyclist who rides regularly throughout Newport Beach and other communities, I am well qualified for this role. I am thoroughly familiar with City bicycle paths and the potential hazards cyclists face. My cycling team —the 24 Hour Fitness Charity Team which raises funds for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society and rides weekly throughout Orange County — named me its Most Inspirational Cyclist in 2011. As a land use attorney, I am also realistic about the scope of what a Bicycle Master Plan can achieve, and I will work hard to balance competing interests and perspectives.

I wish to serve on the BMPOC in order to help the City attain its stated objective to plan, design, and construct cycling improvements, create a comprehensive bicycle network and promulgate bicycle - friendly policy, education and outreach. I am specifically qualified as a daily commuting cyclist (both for my own work and escorting my 4th grader to school by bicycle) and also as a recreational cyclist (three weeks ago I rode 200+ miles on Highway 1 from San Luis Obispo to Santa Monica on a Mondayfruesday "vacation "). On an almost daily basis, I use my bicycle around Newport Beach to run errands. Today I bicycled to pick up groceries for the evening dinner, in my bike basket, at Pavilions in Newport Coast. And I am a former elite competitive cyclist who is raising a future bike - racer. But I also "get" the "car" issue. My wife and I own 4 cars (1) and drive 300 -400 miles a week. I know what it is like to drive a car when there are bicycles on the road with me. In each of these transport mediums I am aware of practical improvements the City can make to enhance the safety and access of cyclists, and make a better transport system for all. With my experience, both as a cyclist and a motorist, I will be able to "test - pilot" any proposed changes and provide concise feedback. I am keenly aware of the City's most pressing bicycle issues, having attended almost all Bicycle Safety Committee meetings since 2010.1 draw on a wealth of bicycle transportation oriented friends and connections, locally and in other California cities (some with bicycle master plans), whom I can consult for ideas and insight. And as a Director of the Orange County Bicycle Coalition I can rely on the combined strength and experience of the rest of its Board of Directors and members. Finally, as a lawyer I am used to the kind of review and analysis that may be asked of the Committee. certify that all statements made on this application are true and correct to the best of my knowledge.

Include any special qualifications you have which are particularly appropriate to the position for which you are applying. Boardwalk beach - cruiser rider? That's me. The guy riding to the market or library or post office to run errands? Yes, that's me too. The guy who commutes rain or shine, day or night without exception? Me again. The guy in lycra riding fast with a group on a Saturday morning? You guessed that's me too. It's easy to lump cyclists in to groups depending on the clothes they are wearing or the type of bike they are riding. This is unfortunate, since all cyclists need the same things - equal rights as road users, safe road and bicycle facilities, education for cyclists on how to ride safely and for motorist on how to drive around cyclists, encouragement from public and private agencies, and evaluation by the city to see what is working and what is not. Because of myfamiliarity with all types of cycling on the full range of facilities in Newport Beach I believe I am uniquely qualified to assist the Bike Master Plan Oversight Committee. As a League Certified Cycling Instructor, I along with my wife Stacy will be teaching the first 'Traffic Skills 101 "course offered in Newport Beach. I am on the board of directors of the Orange County Wheelmen. Last year I rode 10,000 miles, the majority of those ride started, ended, or went through Newport Beach. I am familiar with what works and what does not work for cyclists in our city. I want to help the city make cycling safer for all types of cyclists.

Include any special qualifications you have which are particularly appropriate to the position for which you are applying. I served on both the City's original Task Force on Cycling Safety and the Bicycle Safety Committee. In those roles, I was a vocal advocate for the installation of sharrows through Corona del Mar, appearing at multiple civic organizations to explain their necessity and function. I was also part of the Bicycle Safety Subcommittee charged with drafting the initial scope of work for the Bicycle Master Plan. Working together with two other Committee members, we thought hard about what form such a plan should take and what its goals should be. am proud of the scope that we developed, and even more proud that it became the foundation for this new Oversight committee. I very much want to be part of the conversation as this Master Plan becomes a reality. I will also note that, about a month ago, I joined the long list of cyclists who have been hit by cars. Although (thankfully) I escaped relatively unharmed, the experience strengthened my resolve to do whatever I can to ensure that Newport Beach is safe for cyclists of all abilities. In the last four years, Newport has become a leader in cycling safety and I believe that the Master Plan is our chance to demonstrate, in a very real way, our city's long -term commitment to cycling safety.

Each of the Ronaldson family has ber efitted from Hoag's good care after a bike mishap. Now its Back Bay and to the grocery. The bike plus OCTA makes having one car feasible. But riding around here is tough. For many, city streets are off limits for riding due to fear of death. My aging friends fear driving where cyclists ride. Maybe I can contribute to improvement.
