Worcester Earn-A-Bike Bicycle Blowout Bonanza and Cookout at the Village was another great opportunity to build community and funds - they sold approximately 60 bikes. Alex got a classic (a 1957 Dunelt three-speed)!

A photo of at least 7 cyclists stopped at a red light on Broadway in Cambridge, their backs to the camera. Text overlaid at the top left corner reads, "Support the Broadway separated bike lane project."

Broadway is a dangerous street for people walking and biking. The City plans to install separated bike lanes + other safety improvements in 2025-26. However, the "Save Broadway Parking Coalition" wants to kill this project.

Galen and some of our bicycling instructors were in Brockton this week for our first MA Safe Routes to School events with our new bike fleet! The fleet allows for in-school on-bike safety education, ensuring that all students get behind the handlebars experience.

Just hours before we climbed Capitol Hill for Lobby Day at our 2025 National Bike Summit, the U.S. Department of Transportation called for a review of federal investments in biking. The timing couldn’t have been clearer: now, more than ever, we need to show up and speak out.
