“Newport has been amazing at giving us a platform to actually start to provide some [#ClimateChange] solutions for people. A lot of this comes down to reducing the amount that we’re in our #cars. A big part of this tour for us was looking at #infrastructure all up and down the east coast.

“This is a beautiful sight to see 2,000 bicyclists outside one of the best musical festivals in the country. This needs to be the standard for what we see all throughout the country and all throughout the world.”—Jeff Gorman, #IlliterateLight #musician #ClimateActivist #BikeAdvocate

"I would despair in this political moment if I thought I had to wait until November 2028 to make a statement on my beliefs for a better world….Bicycling holds the potential to be a bulwark against the environmental crisis bearing down on our state in the form of extreme weather and wildfires. There is a fallacy that high tech solutions are the only way out, when the simple bicycle is the best zero carbon vehicle known to man.

"As we look beyond the challenges of today toward the possibilities of tomorrow, we at CalBike are gearing up for an ambitious 2025. Every pedal push in our community is more than just a ride; it’s a step towards a sustainable future."—Kendra Ramsey, ED, #CaliforniaBicycleCoalition / #CalBike

"To be a #BicycleAdvocate is to know disappointment….The car-centered mindset that built much of our state is difficult to change, and progress is sometimes painfully slow. But if we keep coming back, eventually, we win.”—Kendra Ramsey, ED, #CaliforniaBicycleCoalition / #CalBike

Forward: ...a quote from Miguel Anxo, the mayor of Pontevedra, Spain, which has limited cars from their city center since 1999. Translated from Spanish, "As mayor, I have no obligation to find anyone a space to park their car. For me it's as if you buy a cow and ask me where you should put it or if you buy a freezer and you don't have a place in your house and tell me that you want a hole on the street where you can put it. The cars are the same." #biketooter #bikeadvocate #parkingminimums
