2016 State Candidate Survey
/by ZacThe following survey was mailed to every candidate for Assembly or Senate. To see their responses, view this online spreadsheet. Do you ride a bicycle in your district and/or in Sacramento?

If no, what would inspire you, and the 60{850a63fa8a72bae4d6bfa3f1eda9f619cddace10f9053ede128e2914f9ca5a15} of people […]
CalBike’s 2016 Legislation
/by ZacYour California Bicycle Coalition has a packed legislative portfolio for 2016!

CalBike Awards 2015
/by ZacHappy New Year! We’re already going full steam on our 2016 Legislative Agenda but wanted to take some time to recognize all the accomplishments (and some disappointments) from last year.

A Short History of California’s First Freeway
/by ZacThis month in history: on January 4th, 1940, California’s first urban freeway opened. The Arroyo Seco Parkway, which is a part of the US 101 through Pasadena, has some interesting history. Its right-of-way was originally purchased in the late 1890s for what, we think you’ll agree, was a much more interesting idea. The California Cycleway […]
Governor Brown’s Budget Disappoints Us
/by ZacGovernor Brown’s proposed budget, released on Thursday, once again supports the status quo of increased car travel. Despite a $16.2 billion transportation budget including $3 billion in new revenue, his top priorities are repairing potholes and bridges and “improving trade corridors,” which broadly translates to expanding freeways on the most congested priority truck routes. No […]

ATP Cycle 2 Aims to Fund New Bikeways Statewide
/by ZacThe California Transportation Commission will award grants to 113 of the 617 projects that applied for funding from the second round of the state Active Transportation Program, or $215 million for projects that requested more than $1 billion. This significant unmet need demonstrates why your California Bicycle Coalition continues to push for more funding to […]
Senator Liu pulls helmet mandate
/by ZacToday, Senator Carol Liu pulled the helmet mandate from her bill. Helmet mandates don’t make streets safer. They discourage people from riding, and they are enforced inequitably. Your California Bicycle Coalition asked her to pull the bill, and thousands of people from across California chimed in on our petition. Senator Liu heard nearly unanimous opposition […]
