TOGETHER WE MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Looking back over the year, it is important to celebrate our successes big and small. Click on the image above to view a short video about recent advocacy efforts, and keep reading to see what others have to say about our work.
After the courts ruled that the County must pay damages to cyclist Catherine Williams, severely injured from hitting a very large and previously reported pothole, she said, "Your ability to mount a public awareness and advocacy campaign put the appropriate pressure on the county...You did an outstanding job of mobilizing hundreds of people – you kept our community informed along the way with your posts, comments in the press, and emails. You were able to help our community understand why and how my case relates to their well-being and safety."
"A great example of why I should continue my membership is the Extreme vs Ordinary Cycling case coverage. I did not even know about this case and it has a impact (hopefully not literally) on so many cyclists; it was a concise and well crafted article. Worth the time to read! THANK YOU!" ---MW
"I want to personally thank you for your advocacy on the disappearing bike lane on Petaluma Hill Road and for getting it corrected. Great work. Your efforts will undoubtedly have prevented accidents at that location." ---JS
"It appears that the bike lane between Windsor and Healdsburg has been swept and I want to thank you for any steps to took to promote the resolution of months of glass and flats on that route." ---EJK
"I’ve had so much joy and gratitude 'biking to wherever' with SCBC. My elder Schwinn is my way of transportation, by choice, to reduce my carbon imprint..the September scavenger hunt and Love to Ride challenge have been daily acts and that inspire folks to join me...I’ve learned lots watching many of your education videos, we have a wonderful, active Sonoma County Bicycle Coalition!" ---GN
