Mission Statement
Marin County Bicycle Coalition works to improve cycling for everyday transportation and recreation.
About This Cause
MCBC: Connecting Communities and People Through Cycling: Since 1998, the Marin County Bicycle Coalition has worked with public and private partners to create 115 miles of bike pathways and lanes, and has brought over $100 million to Marin County for infrastructure improvements. MCBC MAKES BICYCLING IN MARIN SAFE, FUN, AND ACCESSIBLE WHEN YOU RIDE MARIN'S ROADS, TRAILS, AND PATHWAYS, YOU EXPERIENCE MCBC MCBC Road: The Road Advocacy Program builds the political support needed to identify, promote and fund bike and pedestrian improvements in Marin. Safety and connectivity between communities are the driving themes. We work closely with our public agency partners toward completing the North-South and East-West Greenways, Marin's primary bicycle and pedestrian routes. MCBC Off-Road: The Off-Road Program expands mountain biking opportunities through education, environmental stewardship and trail development. We are committed to bridging gaps in Marin's trails network, while also maintaining and restoring existing trails. This effort is guided by the vision of one day riding from the Golden Gate Bridge to Point Reyes, all off-road. Education & Encouragement MCBC's Education & Encouragement Program hosts a variety of initiatives including Safe Routes to Schools, Cory's Ride, Family Biking, Ride with Us and Basic Street Skills. We offer classes for new riders including children and adults and group rides to explore Marin's roads, pathways and trails. The Safe Routes to Schools Program improves the quality of life for entire school communities through education, encouragement and infrastructure improvements. Presented in partnership with the Transportation Authority of Marin, Safe Routes teaches cycling skills and promotes healthy lifestyles, while championing green transportation. Cory's Ride is a program that brings the benefits of bicycling to as many Marin students as possible, particularly those who could not otherwise afford the chance. Started in memory of Cory Leonoudakis, Cory's Ride is making the health and mobility benefits of cycling a basic right, not just a privilege, for children and teens in our county.
