The Albany Bicycle Coalition advocates for bicycling in the Capital Region of NY State.
- Bicycling . . .
- is the most energy-efficient, environmentally-friendly form of transportation yet devised;
- promotes health and fitness;
- provides family-friendly recreational opportunities, and fosters tourism;
- is a cost-effective means of transportation for persons with limited income.
- We advocate for:
- more and better bicycle infrastructure (bike lanes, multi-use paths, bike racks, signage);
- complete streets for all users (bicyclists, pedestrians, and the disabled, in addition to motor vehicles);
- legislation to improve safety and legal rights for bicyclists and pedestrians.
Albany Bicycle Coalition was founded in 2004, and is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation.
