Become a Volunteer!
We have a very small staff, so our power comes from members, volunteers, and cyclists just like you. Make a difference in your local community by giving us a bit of your time each year.
DID YOU KNOW?
3 Foot Passing Law
“The operator of a vehicle overtaking another vehicle shall pass to the left at a safe distance and shall not again drive to the right until safely clear of the overtaken vehicle. When a motor vehicle overtakes and passes a bicycle, three feet or greater is considered a safe passing distance.”
Our Strategic Priority Areas
Our overall goal is to increase the number of people who bike, walk, and access public transit safely throughout Greater Cleveland. To accomplish this goal, we will focus on the following strategic priority areas:
- Advocacy – We work for safe streets and public spaces through policy change and advocating for best practices in bikeway/walkway design and maintenance, resulting in an equitable transportation network.
- Education –We provide education and training to increase knowledge and skills necessary to walk and bicycle safely, and educate drivers and decision makers on the rights of bicyclists and pedestrians.
- Communication – We communicate effectively with our supporters to inspire engagement and action, and to the general public to build broader support for safe biking, walking, and public transit.
- Organizational Sustainability – We cultivate our resources, both financial and human, efficiently and effectively to ensure long term growth of the organization and its work.
- Equity and Inclusion – We view all our programs and advocacy campaigns through a lens of equity and inclusion to ensure our work addresses the needs of Greater Clevelanders who have historically been marginalized by transportation system decisions.
- Community – We grow diverse, engaged communities by focusing on outreach, fun events, and membership and by building the next generation of advocates.
