Why do we need the bike-rack down there? When I, as well as a lot of other people, ride my bike to get to Cranbrook School. I ride up New South Head Road and past the bottom of the school. I could easily just get off my bike once I am there and lock it up saving at quite a lot of time and saving me from riding another 500 metres. I am not allowed to do this however, for there is no bike-rack. Having a bike-rack down there would make riding to school for me and many other people a lot easier. It also will encourage a lot more people to ride there bikes to school knowing that they don't have to ride up a massive hill when they don't need to. Below is map of the extra distance that I have to ride. The blue line is where I would have to ride anyway and the green line is how much further i have to ride. The red dot where the blue line ends is where I could stop and the other red dot is where I have to ride to. As you can see I and all of the other boys going that way have to ride quite a lot further than we need to.
What am I going to do about it? First i will go to Mr Dunn and tell him why it is a good idea to have a bike-rack down on the bottom level. If he agrees withme i will go and investigate the problem to see if there is any alternative to riding up the hill with no bike-rack on the bottom level. If there is no alternative to the problem I will research a few different bike-racks which I think could be good to use. i will take them up to Mr Dunn and see what he thinks. if he chooses one of the ones on my list or finds another one he thinks would be good the problem will be solved!
Getting Informed: To get informed I am first going to talk to Mr Dunn about where the best possible place to put the bike-rack is. Once we have decided that we will look at which bike-rack would be best to put down there

This is a very good idea Billy and I think Mr Dunn should make one down there.
Great idea Bill-Bill, I never realised how far you hat to ride but didn't need to. By the way maybe you should share a bit about that magpie you were telling me about.
