    A new initiative from Bikes Belong. Sign the pledge to join.

    Description from their website:

    "We all ride. Now we can ride as one.We’re all united by a shared passion: bikes. Bikes keep us healthy, carry us from point A to point B, save us from high gas prices, and make our air cleaner and our roads less congested. Bikes fill our lives with adventure and excitement, relaxing our minds and energizing our souls.

    Peopleforbikes.org is dedicated to channeling that passion to improve the future of bicycling. Our goal is to gather a million names of support, to speak with one, powerful voice—to make bicycling safer, more convenient and appealing for everyone.

    Simply put, we believe that life is far more enjoyable when it’s experienced on two wheels. We believe that by coming together, we can make our world a better place to ride."

    I posted this awhile ago, but there's also a sweet little video on their website about the joys of biking. I still get all teary every time I watch it, but I'm a sap.

    (And if you don't blink, you'll see my son at :08 seconds in, zooming through a puddle, and me and both boys on the xtracycle riding in the rain at :26 seconds in)


    Sorry I keep promoting the video, I just am super proud to have been able to be a part of it, and think they did a great job on it!
