The formal agenda will include a legislative update with some bike-friendly champions, a look into our Worcester E-Bike Program, and more. The evening will conclude with short break-out sessions to allow for small-group conversations with fellow better bicycling advocates. RSVP below today- we look forward to seeing you on December 6th.

The 2022 Annual Meeting will include...

Legislative Panel

Massachusetts was named the #1 Bike-Friendly State by the League of American Bicyclists– our one ding was lack of state legislation. However, this was a big year for bike-friendly initiatives on Beacon Hill. MassBike Executive Director, Galen Mook, and MassBike Board Member, Kristen Sykes, will co-host a panel with two of our legislative champions on Beacon Hill.

Representative Dylan Fernandes (Barnstable, Dukes and Nantucket)

Co-Sponsor of An Act relative to electric bicycles

Representative Natalie Blais (1st Franklin)

Sponsor of An Act relative to electric bicycle rebates

Worcester E-Bike Program Update

Our E-Bike Grant Manager, Alex Salcedo, will give a program update and we'll hear from participants about the impact of the Worcester E-Bike Program.

Older Adult Programming Spotlight

The MassBike team will discuss our partnership with the City of Cambridge on the Healthy Aging Bicycling Clinic & Group Rides and the expansion of our older adult programming in the City of Worcester thanks to support from AARP Massachusetts and an AARP Community Challenge Grant.
