Several years ago, members of the Rochester Bicycling Club (RBC) helped to rate selected roads in the City of Rochester, surrounding Monroe County, and nearby towns in Wayne, Ontario, and Livingston Counties. These road ratings were used by the Genesee Transportation Council (GTC) to develop the 2009 Edition of the Greater Rochester Area Bicycling Map. 20,000 copies of the map were printed by the GTC and distributed throughout the bicycling community by members of the RBC and others.

It is time to update the map and we need the help of experienced road cyclists.

You must be willing to ride the selected roads in the Town of Monroe County you select during non-commute times. You must be over 18 years old.

If you would like to help with rating the roads for this map update, please send me an email with the following information:

1.Your name, address, home or cell phone number
2.Your cycling experience in 100 words or less
3.If you want a copy of the current map let me know

I will email to you additional details with a list of the Towns open for rating.

The ratings must be completed by October 31, 2012 in order to meet the goal of publishing a new edition of the map during the winter of 2012/2013.
