CalBike Endorses Christy Smith for AD 38
/by ZacVote for Christy Smith for Assembly The incumbent was no friend to bicycling as Mayor Pro Tem of Santa Clarita and in the Assembly reliably voted against our bills to improve bike safety. He wants to use gas tax money to widen roads instead of maintaining them. He deserves to be defeated by Christy Smith […]
Vote Yes on Prop 68
/by ZacAlthough it’s not obvious from its title, the Parks, Environment and Water Bond includes major funding opportunities for trails, walking and biking. Many millions of dollars will be available for trails not just in remote parks but connecting the destinations we try to reach every day. Proposition 68 responds to the fact that many Californians across […]
Vote No on Prop 70
/by ZacProposition 70 was put on the ballot to appease climate change deniers and oil and car interests to make it harder to sustain California’s landmark Cap-and-Trade greenhouse gas emission reduction plan that is critical to billions of dollars in funding of our state’s efforts to stop global warming, including substantial funds for bicycling. California’s climate […]
CalBike Endorses Gayle McLaughlin for Lt. Governor
/by ZacVote for Gayle McLaughlin for Lieutenant Governor McLaughlin’s platform reads like a bicycle advocates’ dream. She gets the importance of bicycling as a component of sustainable transportation and a more socially just society, and has a track record as the Mayor of Richmond to back up her claims. With McLaughlin as Lieutenant Governor, we’ll have […]

Speed Limit Reform Update: Amendments Curb AB 2363’s Potential To Save Lives
/by ZacA bill that would have improved the way speed limits are created was amended in the Assembly Transportation Committee on Monday to just call for more study. Currently, speed limits are set by measuring the speed of drivers in free flow conditions, then, after measuring 100 drivers, the speed limit is set at the 5 mph […]
Getting Ready for Autonomous Vehicles
/by ZacThe fact that Uber would allow a driverless car onto the road without the ability to see a pedestrian clearly in its path is a sign that the technology is not ready to be operated on our streets. But when the technology is ready, autonomous vehicle technology could finally put a halt to the bloody crashes that […]
CalBike Endorses Mike Eng for SD 22
/by ZacVote for Mike Eng for Senate One of two bike-friendly candidates for this seat, Mike Eng deserves your vote for his commitment not just to bicycling but to the related issues around air pollution and affordable housing that make life easier for people who ride bikes. Senate District 22 serves the cities and communities of […]

Some of them craft policies that help protect you and your family when you choose to get on a bike to ride around your community—and some of them support and are well financed […]
Six Things to Prepare for a Bike-Friendly 2018, #4: Show Your Local Advocacy Organization Some Love.
/by ZacMost of the decisions about whether your street is going to be safe for biking are made at the local level, by city councils or County Boards or regional agencies. They are fights over real estate on the street. State policy matters—we work hard for policies that make it easier for locals to win those street […]
