Storytelling

Bike Cleveland’s Storytelling Series brings to life the unique experiences of cyclists, pedestrians, and ADA users across our city.

From moments of joy to the challenges faced on the road, these stories reveal the highs and lows of navigating Cleveland. Mobility shapes how people experience our city, and through these personal narratives, we aim to showcase both the beauty and the areas in need of change. Our goal is to inspire, advocate, and drive positive action so that everyone can experience the freedom and joy of biking, walking, and rolling through Cleveland. Join us as we share the stories that move us forward, and share your own story to jerrod@bikecleveland.org to be featured.
