My advice right now: Keep your money in your pocket. It's not the same League I joined years ago when it was truly a cyclist's advocacy group. The new president of the LAB is former Bicycling magazine publisher Mike Greehan. I don't know if this is good or not.
I've heard about the League's money problems, and internal schisms. I think it is even possible that the League could even go under. Have any of you heard that membership has been on the decline for the past five years?
