Designing Streets for Safety, Not Speed

Every day, more than 100 people are killed by car crashes in the United States, with excessive vehicle speeds being a major factor. Lowering vehicle speeds, on streets shared with people walking and riding bikes, is critical to saving the lives of all road users nationwide. Join PeopleForBikes and a panel of experts to learn about policies that successfully reduce vehicle speeds, street design strategies that lower speeds without impeding emergency response times, and tips for implementing those policies and strategies in your community.

2024 State of the Industry: Sales, Inventory, and Discounting

The Nerd Collective is a collaboration between leading experts from across the industry who meet each month to develop data-backed insights on the most pressing issues affecting the bike business. Featuring retailer and supplier inventory sales ratios from Circana, e-commerce data from Workstand, and a year’s worth of used bike sales insights from Bicycle Market Research, join the Nerd Collective to explore what happened in the bicycle market during the first half of 2024 and what to expect heading into the holiday season.

Safety, Health, Economy, Youth: Messaging That Wins

The most important policy changes and infrastructure improvements that benefit bicycling also benefit all members of a community. Join the first session of PeopleForBikes’ Better Bike Advocacy Workshop to gain the skills to make your messaging more effective, including learning how to listen better, be more inclusive, and lead with community, not bicycling. Hear diverse examples of great messaging and work with advocacy experts to develop and practice the perfect elevator pitch to bring to your next local meeting.
