The Merced Bicycle Coalition
We look to make our streets safer, enable local bicycle riders to ride knowledgeably and create a community for all the local bicyclists.
Making our community safer, our air cleaner and our citizens healthier by promoting bicycling as a safe and normal means of everyday transportation and recreation. We are a locally organized group committed to having fun, promoting and advocating cycling not only as recreation, but also as a means of regular transportation. We also look to serve the community through interaction with the local government, promoting the continued development of Merced as a bicycle friendly community.

Yay! Our work was featured this week in the _Rural Health Information Hub_ newsletter!
Chain Reaction: Homegrown Programs Encourage Safe Biking in Rural Areas - The Rural Monitor The health benefits associated with cycling are vast. But in some rural areas, potential cyclists can be discouraged by a lack of bike-friendly infrastructure or the absence of a local cycling community.
We will be riding tomorrow, Saturday, morning. Looks like we will possibly just miss the rain! Meet at the playground in Applegate Park at 10am for the ride. First meeting of the year at Coffee Bandits at 12n after the ride. Hopefully you can join us!

"The study’s authors estimate that if every city had a bike network like Copenhagen’s, private vehicle emissions would fall 6 percent, and annual health benefits would total $435 billion, partly because of reduced cardiovascular disease."
These are the World's Best Cities for Walking and Cycling Data from 11,587 cities show that, rain or shine, some places are just better for bikes and pedestrians
