ILTB, if you need help with how to start here is what I would use as step 1.

Contact the LAB & simply ask if there is any statistical evidence that these courses & what the LAB stands for has done anything to help make people better & safer cyclists & if what they do has in any way improved cycling over all.

If they do not have the proof then that would lead you to step 2. That is to offer to help them obtain it by recommending they conduct surveys amongts their members & those that have taken the courses.

Step 3 would be to conduct the survey's & collect the data. Step 4 compiling the data & step 5 is releasing the data to the public.

If they have the proof ask how you & anyone else who wishes to can read it. If it is not compiled then suggest they do so for easy reading & understanding. In other words if the data exists you may be able to jump ahead in the steps I recommend above.

I have a hunch some of the data already exists. Especially what they have done in Washington DC with legislation & the transportation bill, etc.

So are you going to do as I suggest or continue to *****, moan & whine from your soap box?
