Now that our little party to celebrate 40 years of advocating for safe cycling is over, what’s next?
Bike Ottawa celebrates 40 years of advocating for safe cycling
Bike Ottawa took to the streets and Queen Elizabeth Driveway yesterday to celebrate its 40th anniversary of working to make the streets safer for cyclists (and by extension people who walk and roll as well).
Accessible bike infrastructure
Bike Ottawa has done quite a lot of work on the need to make bike parking accessible for all kinds of bikes. Bike theft is one of the main reasons people don’t bike, so good racks that can accommodate cargo bikes, bikes with front baskets, bikes with wide tires, trikes, etc. are essential.
Cities are failing women
Cities are failing cyclists more generally, but there is a persistent gender gap between men and women riding bikes. This video explains why. In the description, you’ll find links to all the sources mentioned.
