Bicycle-Friendly Berkeley Coalition (BFBC)

BFBC is the Bicycle-Friendly Berkeley Coalition. Our mission is to make Berkeley a more bicycle-friendly city. We want to help make bicycling so safe, convenient, and pleasant that it becomes a preferred way of getting around town.

BFBC´s Long-Term Goals

• Implement the Berkeley Bicycle Plan, particularly the Bicycle Boulevard Network.
• More and better public bicycle parking
• Bicycle awareness events and celebrations.
• Ongoing bicycle safety education.
