Did you ever think "I'd bike to <some business> but there's no bike rack there?"

Did you know you can use 311 to request a street bike rack? The city wants to hear from you! We've had lots of recent and quick successes.

Hat tip to the hard work of our "Secure Bike Parking Working Group". #bikeyvr

Volunteer at HUB pop-up bike security events this July and August!

You’ll demonstrate secure bike locking, help register bikes on 529 Garage, hand out bike lock discount coupons, offer bike lock raffle entries and demonstrate requesting a Vancouver street bike rack. 

In partnership with VPD Community Policing, 529 Garage and sponsors West Point Cycles and ABUS.

Anthony, how can you sum up the challenges of advocating for safer cycling opportunities in Vancouver? From a just-released engagement report for a potential street configuration change in Vancouver: "I don't mind having a bike lane but not at the expense of parking..." #bikeyvr

If the vehicular cycling idea of sharing space with cars in bike routes has been abandoned

Municipalities have to be prepared for cyclist to demand separated bicycle and car facilities everywhere, rather than bicycles sharing with cars

If they thought bicyclist were up in arms demanding bike lanes before

I imagine calls for that SUV driver to support the whole street of parking being removed for separate car and cycling lanes
