Since 1880 the League of American Bicyclists has been advocating for better, safer places to ride. THE LEAGUE represents bicyclists in the movement to create safer roads, stronger communities, and a Bicycle Friendly America. Through education, advocacy and promotion, we work to celebrate and preserve the freedom cycling brings to our members everywhere. Bicycling brings people together.When more people ride bikes:     Life is better for everyone;      Communities are safer, stronger and better connected;      Our nation is healthier, economically stronger, environmentally cleaner and      more energy independent.In this conversation, John and Bill dive deep into the great work the League is involved with and we get to learn a bit about Bill's own journey along the way. Additional Helpful Links:Bicycle Friendly AmericaNational Bike SummitSafe Cycling Education ProgramHappy City Book by Charles MontgomeryEco CounterIt Could Be MeVision Zero NetworkThinkBike WorkshopDutch Cycling EmbassyFour Easy Steps to Support My Efforts:1.
