Editor's Notes

  1. Note the League established the Good Roads Movement, forerunner to AAA and FHWA Only national bicycle membership group with headquarters in Washington DC
  2. People want good places to ride. Local community fought hard to get bike/ped access to US 17 (Cooper River bridge) in Charleston. Now DOT has to provide parking at either end for all the people using the trail; one of the few great places to ride in the area.
  3. Always remember we have a powerful opposition Love affair is abusive relationship, must change it One third of the population cant even get a date
  4. North Carolina DOT study showing 9-1 ROI for bicycling improvements in the Outer Banks – and relatively modest improvements at that.
  5. The League has run a BFC program for several years – at first with relatively easy criteria for communities to meet. In 2002 the program was overhauled and a new, more rigorous application and review process was initiated. One important change was the creation of a four tiered award system – created with the intent of encouraging communities to continually improve.
  6. The rigorous application form asks a series of about a dozen questions in each of five major areas of bicycle policy and programs. To reach the higher levels of award, communities must score well across all five areas – communities that only have strong programs in one area are unlikely to be recognized. The application form is available for completion on-line.
  7. After a community submits the application and sends any appropriate supporting literature, the application is reviewed three ways: League staff review the applications internally An external reviewer is asked to score each application, and Local cyclists – League members, LCIs, club leaders etc., are asked to comment on the application and provide their prespective on the bicycle-friendliness of the community. This last stage of the review is important to us, and local reviewers have definitely had an impact on many of the awards – or lack of awards. Through March 2004, more than 80 communities had applied – less than half (38) have been rewarded with a designation. We are confident in the robust review process.
  8. The program was revised and relaunched with the generous support of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Ongoing support for the program and the Policy Project is provided by Bikes Belong, and we have worked closely with the Pedestrian and Bicycle Information Center to provide technical support for the program and the communities.
