Building on 10 Y e a r s of Prog r ess

Bicycling has come a long way

in the last 10 years. Our movement has grown larger and more effective; the number of people riding is growing in almost every community in the nation. But we need more people on bikes more often, and the reasons just keep on growing. Whether it’s obesity, health care, climate change, air quality, energy independence, traffic congestion, economic development or quality of life issues – bicycling has got to be part of the solution. In 2010, Congress and our Federal agencies will be setting national targets and goals for 2020. They will be writing transportation, climate, health care, natural resources and other critical pieces of legislation that will shape our future.

Bicycling must be prominently featured in these important pieces of legislation, documents, funding streams and programs.

We will kick-off the 2010 Summit on Tuesday evening, March 9 with a celebratory reception, looking back over our accomplishments for bicycling these past 10 years and sharing what is possible for our country in the next 10. Educational workshops and advocacy breakout sessions fill Wednesday’s schedule, and Thursday’s Congressional meetings will culminate with a reception on Capitol Hill. As always, the Congressional Bike Ride is on Friday – represent your state in D.C.!

n at ion a l Bik e summ it 2 010

2010 Schedule

In 2010, Congress will continue its’ efforts to pass critical legislation establishing targets and goals that will shape our nation’s policy in the areas of transportation, climate, health care, and natural resources for the next twenty years. Bicycling will help us promote a more sustainable and healthy lifestyle for all of us, and bicycling must have a role to play in all of these policy areas.

Congressional Bike Ride (will end by 11 a.m.)

Ten years ago, the first National Bike Summit brought just over 100 advocates and industry leaders to Washington, D.C. – this year our goal is to have 1,000 participants.

We need delegates from every Congressional district at the National Bike Summit. We must make the case that greater federal investment in active transportation encourages bicycling and helps us reach America’s national priorities.

Attend the 2010 National Bike Summit and let your voice be heard on Capitol Hill!
