Biking is flat out fun. Bike commuting takes cars off congested streets, reduces air pollution and carbon emissions, and lessens parking pressure. Heck, it’s even healthy. Unfortunately biking around town, and in and out of traffic, is also occasionally terrifying.
Happily organizations like the Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition are thinking seriously about such challenges in Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties. The non-profit Coalition works to encourage folks to join the biking community, to educate and support those that do bike, and to improve biking infrastructure by influencing policy.
Dedicated to promoting environmental, community, and economic vitality two wheels at a time, these guys are just trying to get you (and everyone you know) out biking. You’ll know more – and hopefully bike more – after visiting Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition’s website or contacting them here:
