Bikes Belong is Good for Communities

We believe bicycling makes America better. Bicycling is a solution to many challenges facing our society today. By helping create safe places to ride and encouraging people to pedal, we’re forming stronger, healthier communities.

Helping improve America

• Our lobbying efforts and Grants Program help develop hundreds of new bike paths, lanes, trails, and programs each year.
• By hosting the Safe Routes to School National Partnership, we’re working to create safe ways for kids to bike to school. This leads to healthier children and lighter traffic.
• Our support of the Bicycle Friendly Communities program (run by the League of American Bicyclists) is inspiring cities and towns to improve their bicycle facilities and programs.
• The Paul David Clark Bicycling Safety Fund supports projects to improve bicycle safety.
• More and better places to ride inspire more people to pedal.
• We’re getting more children on bikes, creating healthier generations.
• Transforming car commuters to bike commuters reduces polluting emissions, so we can all breathe cleaner air.
• People buying bikes support jobs and businesses.
• Active communities have fewer weight-related diseases and lower healthcare costs.
• When people ride bikes, they get to know their neighbors and neighborhoods, creating friendlier communities.
