About us
Bicycle Colorado is the nonprofit organization dedicated to building a bicycle-friendly Colorado. Our mission is to encourage and promote bicycling, increase safety, improve conditions and provide a voice for cyclists in Colorado. Established in 1992, we are supported by thousands of members who realize that we need to work together to protect the rights of bicyclists – or risk losing them. We work for more bike lanes and paths, better trails, education outreach and bicycle-friendly laws. Our efforts are primarily focused at the state and regional level since that’s where so many of the policy decisions that affect bicyclists are made.
