How do I spark interest at the Council on Aging hall. I joined the monthly meetings for men last week. It's going to be a hard sell, I need help.
I can tout the health bennies etc, the spike in positive attitude and the drop in blood pressure. What else?
I would suggest leading a VERY easy ride - 5 miles or less, where you, as leader, stop frequently to let everyone catch up, appreciate the beauty of nature, etc. Start with whomever will join you - 2 to 3 folks, if that is all you can get.

Beyond that

End at some social place where you enjoy an ice cream cone or coffee or something similar.
