Help Us Chart our Bike Future: Take the Survey on Unification
In late February, we announced a “New National Plan to Transform Bicycling” — the potential unification of the League, Bikes Belong and the Alliance for Biking & Walking into one, powerful national organization.
With more than 40 comments on that blog post, we know you want to share your ideas and feedback — and we want to hear it.
Please take this quick survey at BikeFuture.org.
“There is a lot of work ahead,” Hans van Naerssen, Chair of the League’s board and a member of the transition team, said in the announcement. “We must determine how to combine the diverse strengths of a powerful alliance of state and local organizations, a storied national user group, and a vibrant industry association in a way that preserves their unique attributes and realizes the game-changing potential of a single entity.”

Start by identifying those entities that are already common between the three and make that the foundation. Next step is to combine those ideas/ideals that are similar, but with differences and shape them to fit the trilogy’s mission/goals. Keep the members of all three involved through surveys, and input requests for a clearer vision of what is important in our minds. We can make the difference as we become the change we want to see.
