Posting signs and conducting outreach has been tough—many flyers near Capital Bikeshare kiosks are removed by city maintenance staff. The most effective approach? Carry a few tri-fold signs and talk to people directly.

📢 Sample Script

"Have you heard about the petition opposing price gouging and discrimination against low-income riders? Could you scan this QR code to sign and help fight back?"

If you’re posting signs in your neighborhood, use the landscape flyer with a working QR code (link).  Capital Bikeshare Petition

Ideal spots include:

Parks, athletic fields, and schools
Metro rail stations and bus stops
Near CaBi kiosks (be discreet)
🛡️ Posting Tips

Use plastic protector sleeves to weatherproof signs
Secure with moving tape, especially in outdoor spots
For covered areas, tape behind glass at eye level
Bring a backpack with water, 30 flyers, protectors, and tape
End CaBi rides within 60 minutes to avoid overcharges
🎯 While posting, engage passersby—especially in low-income neighborhoods where interest tends to be high. A short, sincere conversation makes all the difference.

Signs have already appeared across Alexandria, along the 32 Dash Bus line, King Street, and heading toward Potomac. More volunteers are needed throughout Alexandria and beyond. Since many signs are removed quickly, aim to talk to a few people each day and share the QR code directly.
