Opportunities to Volunteer

There are many ways that you can volunteer your time to make a difference as a bicycle advocate in your community.

  • Work with local planners or council members to get Share the Road signs in your area and to consider accommodations for bicyclists and pedestrians
  • Teach a road safety course for adults in your community
  • Work with local police, EMS and your area Safe Kids Coalition to organize a child safety rodeo in your community
  • Let your elected officials know your thoughts. Attend public meetings. Write letters and emails as a concerned citizen. Because members sent letters to their local Clear Channel Communications radio stations, the Midlands will now hear Public Service announcements about Bike Safety on the Radio!

  • Ask your employer to adopt some bike-friendly practices at your place of work, ie. installing a bike rack and providing a shower
  • Replace one car trip per week with a bicycle trip
