Don't expect help from an organization that promotes path riding as a replacement for roadway cycling.

Instead, find the local road cycling clubs, and contact their leaders about repealing the ordinance. Experienced road cyclists tend to be highly opposed to mandatory-sidepath-use ordinances. They can probably get their whole club to sign a petition if required.

Please feel free to re-use material from our letter to Cary.
