LCI - League Certified Instructor
The League refers to the League of American Bicyclists - a national organization. It does not restrict anyone to a specific state.
But shorter answer, there are 11 LCIs in MN currently with a goal of 75 by the end of 2010. It is our intention to improve cyclist safety, awareness, and proficiency. The intended outcome will be swelling of the numbers of cyclists and improved respect between the motorized and non-motorized vehicles on the roads.
But still curious what needs to be provided so that experienced and qualified cyclists would be drawn to 9 hour training sessions.
Hope to hear some of that from this group.
Contirubutions and comments are very welcomed by me.
