Our Mission
Mission Statement:
Powered by our love of cycling, our community, and our planet, we increase the use of bicycle-based transportation for everyone through access, education, and advocacy.
How We’re Living Out Our Mission Statement:
Community: We are building an inclusive, equitable, and diverse community where all people are treated with dignity and mutual respect.
Accessibility: We offer everyone the opportunity to ride and we support access to cycling for everybody.
Sustainability: We create a sustainable environment by riding, recycling, repairing, and refurbishing bicycles.
Education: We are teaching our community about bicycle care, repair, and safety.
Advocacy: We work with decision makers at all levels of government to ensure that biking is a superior travel option, by advocating for physical infrastructure, laws, and planning priorities that keep cyclists and pedestrians the most important people on our streets.
Vision:
We’re a community making bicycling a truly sustainable, equitable, and affordable means of everyday transportation; where human-powered transportation is prioritized in fact and not just in words; and where transportation betters all residents' lives physically, emotionally, and economically.
Community Cycles Board Commitment:
Community Cycles hereby reaffirms our commitment to our members and guests to provide a safe and welcoming environment.
We are committed to fostering and ensuring equity and social justice through protection of the human rights of all persons regardless of race, socioeconomic status, gender, ethnic heritage, religious belief, LGBTQ identification, ability, or immigration status.
