[CASL-L] Read n Ride

[Cheryl Robertson]

Congratulations, Jodie! Thanks to the CASL conversations, I too applied for
a grant and received two bikes.  They were delivered yesterday, and I can't
wait for the kids to see them.  I love your ideas for roll-out and
usage. Thank you for sharing!
Best,
Cheryl
