Send a pro-bike letter to your local paper

Dear Daniel,

This week is officially National Bike to Work Week. However, we'd like to encourage you to think of it as National Bike to Anywhere Week. Half of all trips Americans make are three miles or less—an easy biking distance. Imagine the good that would come if more people in your community tried biking for some of these short trips. Wouldn't it be nice?

We have an easy way for you to tell your community why bikes are a great way to go. Use this simple tool to send a pro-bike letter to your local newspaper that encourages and inspires your neighbors to give biking a try, or at least support bicycling if they don't ride themselves. You can even add a personal story about how bicycling has changed your life.

Use this simple form to write a pro-bike letter.

We're hoping to get a pro-bike letter published in each of the 50 states. If your letter makes it into print, be sure to let us know! Click here to send your letter today:

Let's roll together,
