CalBike Stands for Safe Streets for Everyone

Addressing Structural Racism in Transportation

CalBike is committed to working to undo the structural racism and inequity built into California’s transportation infrastructure and policymaking. Transportation planning and policies have historically discriminated against, segregated, and displaced immigrants, low-income people, and communities of color, bolstering racial and class inequalities. Current mobility planning processes and decisions often perpetuate these harms.

Advancing Equity and Inclusion

CalBike is committed to advancing equity through infrastructure, expanding decision-making processes by bringing underrepresented communities to the table, working to end the over-policing of Black and brown Californians, and more. We recognize that it is only by addressing and redressing anti-Black violence and violence against Indigenous groups, women, and other marginalized peoples that we will be able to achieve the equity, inclusion, and prosperity that all California communities deserve.

Shifting the Narrative on Transportation Justice

We work to reframe and shift the dominant discourse on transportation planning and policies to relieve historical and current burdens on low-income communities of color and to provide affordable, reliable, and safe transportation options that improve neighborhoods and opportunities in marginalized communities. We collaborate with, learn from, and center marginalized peoples and intersectional allies on issues of mobility justice.

Bicycling as a Path to Stronger Communities

At CalBike, we advocate for bicycling not only because we love the bike as a machine but also because we love how bicycling can make our communities better: more equitable, prosperous, healthy, connected, and inclusive.

TAKE ACTION

Truth in Biking – Support AB 1167

Electric bicycles are already clearly defined under state and federal law. But increasingly, high-powered “e-motos” — often exceeding 750 watts and capable of motorcycle-level speeds  are being marketed and sold as “e-bikes,” especially to youth. SB 1167 draws a clear line. It protects legitimate Class 1, 2, and 3 electric bicycles while requiring higher-powered electric motorcycles and mopeds to be truthfully labeled, properly disclosed, and regulated as motor vehicles. This bill strengthens consumer protections, improves safety standards, and preserves the integrity of e-bikes as a clean, accessible transportation option for Californians of all ages and abilities.

Public Safety First

A call to action for District Attorneys and State Attorney General to enforce consumer protection laws. E-bikes represent a novel opportunity to give people in California a reliable, clean, and independent way to get around. Join us in urging the Attorney General’s office to curb the sale of illegal e-motos in California.
