Generally, when we add an advertiser to the side bar, we like to take a second to introduce them to the community.  I don’t think we need to introduce CicLAvia, so we waited until there was some value to the CicLAvia team to give them their welcome announcement.

The CicLAvia team has begun to reach out and ask for volunteers to help make CicLAvia a repeat success in 2011.  But you don’t have to wait until April 1oth to help out, they actually need a hand this week…starting tomorrow.  Be sure to bookmark this page, and check it regularly if you’re interested in helping.  Here are the dates they have listed now for volunteer opportunities:
