Standing committees review items in detail and allow the members to discuss them, reach consensus, and make non-binding recommendations to the full Village Board. Because the items advanced by standing committees have been fully discussed at the committee level, recommendations are generally not subject to further deliberation at Village Board meetings. Items on a consent agenda may also be recommended by the Zoning Board of Appeals, Planning Commission, or the Village Manager. An elected official, staff member, or member of the general public may request that an item be removed from the consent agenda for further discussion. If there is such a request, the item can be removed from the consent agenda and discussed under committee reports.

Before I get into the presentations for all of our winners with our bike contest, I'd just like to thank the village board for including and sending the invitation to us to be able to participate in the toast we had at the library for the 70 years of the village, because most of us on bikeways feel we've been around that long working on bikeways. Very touched to be included in that, so thank you. And also to allow us to come forth to recognize our winners, because we feel they deserve this level of importance. So, Sid, do you want to help me?
It's almost as big as you are, Sid. It's a big trophy.
the eighth annual business bike classic advanced tier first place trophy the village held the business bike classic during bike month in june 11 teams i think that's the most we've ever had totaling 43 riders completed 9 413 miles riding a total of 2,186 miles, the advanced tier first place team is Z-Cycle Dilago. Team members include Sam Z. Winton, John Soomski, Sam Goodman, Bill Lindberg. This evening, John Soomski is accepting the award on behalf of the team.
Thank you very much.
What a beauty. Where do you want to stand?
Wherever you want to stand.
Well, beside your work. Thank you.
Thank you. That is just awesome. Yeah, I'm happy. Thank you very much.
The next, though,
Presentation of the third annual Friends and Family Bike Classic first place trophy by Char.
The village held the Family and Friends Bike Classic during Bike Month in June. Five teams totaling 20 riders completed in the 4,636 miles. Riding a total of 2,431 miles, the first place team, I don't know how they do it, is the Schomburg Bicycle Club. Team members include Joan Murstock, Lynn Calderol, Neil Holdaway, and Ray Mason. And so... You want to come on up? This is a ball of time. I knew where you were. I just wasn't quite sure where we were. Because he's the leader of your group. And congratulations. Thank you. Congratulations.
And I don't see. Presentation of the third annual Friends and Family Bike Classic Top Overall Rider Grand Prize by Char.
Okay, congratulations to the top overall rider. Out of 63 total competing participants, Neil Holdway individually rode an impressive 1,130 miles in the month of June. That's the equivalent of cycling the straight line distance to Salt Lake, Utah. I couldn't imagine riding that on my bike. In recognition, Neil has received a new bicycle courtesy of Dick's Sporting Goods, and I believe we have the bicycle in the back of the room. He's already received it ahead of time because he needed a new one, so he had something to ride with.
Wore the other one out, right?
So he brought it tonight so we could see. Do you want it up there? That'd be great. That's a beauty.
Very nice, nice. It's not an e-bike. Can I get in the picture with you? No, it's not an e-bike.
And we are pleased to present him with a certificate of recognition honoring the achievement. And also accompanying the bike is a new bicycle helmet generously provided by Never Ending Cycles. So at least you'll be safe out there on your new bicycle and you won't be hobbling like our other bicyclists.
Congratulations.
Closing remarks, the Village would like to congratulate all Bike Classic winners and extend this sincere appreciation to everyone who participated in Bike Month this June. We also thank our generous sponsors for helping make this year's event a success, including Al Larson Cultural Center, A La Carte Entertainment, Attitude Schomburg, Chick-fil-A, Dick's Sporting Goods, Egg Harbor, Farmer's Milk, First Watch, Indiana, Juice Valley, Lou Malnati's Pizza, McAllister's Deli, Never Ending Cycles, Nothing But Bunk Cakes, Rising Early Cafe, Schomburg Park District, Schomburg Library, Sweet Reserve Bakery and Cafe, our village president. I can't tell you how many years I've gotten to ride with him when it's ride to work. And so it just seems very fitting that he still supports us in another way monetarily, which is because he's tied up so much with being our president, and the Seven Mile Cycle Group. We couldn't do all of this if it wasn't for the Village Board. You guys have gone out of your way to support us. We've come forward with some crazy things, and you guys have always said, okay, we'll give you a chance, bring it forward, and this is one of them and it's worked and so we see more and more people out in the community for just this reason because we have the full support of our board behind our bicycle. uh... commission so thank you so much on behalf of the uh... the bicycle commission and you'll be seeing this again here next year if not sooner well i'd be remiss if i didn't thank you and the bicycle commission for all that you do so thank you thank you i think everybody on that commission thoroughly enjoys it we all have a bicycle story that we can tell so that's why we're on it so let's hope we don't see many more limping Let's hope not.
Y'all take care now.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
All right.
