League of American Bicyclists in D.C.

Each March CABA sends rep to the nation’s Capital along with up to 600 reps from bike clubs, shops, corporate reps and non-profit advocate groups nationwide. The highlight each year is lobbying Congressional offices on behalf of our cause.  We will be meeting with your NC elected Senators and House reps. to make sure they know what our priorities are.

Let us know what you want us to tell them by using the comments bubble below.


CAR-FREE FRIDAYS IN PITTSBURGH

June 30, 2009

If they can do it so can we

Pittsburgh is a city about the same size as Charlotte (and just as hot in the summer !). The local bicycle advocacy group – Bike PGH – (which just happens to have over twice as many members as CABA….ugh) launched a city-wide initiative earlier this summer to encourage commuters to leave their cars at home at least once a week.  “Car Free Fridays” – are  days  when the air is a little cleaner and the streets a little safer.  A day to welcome the use of smart transportation.
