Greetings!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An open, smooth road ahead of you ... wind at your back ... a nice wide bike lane.
What a sense of freedom and joy these simple pleasures give us cyclists!
But you and I both know we should never take favorable biking conditions for granted.
When I ride, I'm always ready for inclement weather. As President of the League,
I'm on the alert for all kinds of obstacles to the needs and rights of cyclists
like you.
Our members' support makes a real difference in the League's and my efforts to
influence positive change for people who choose to pedal and walk. Your year-end
gift [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=0011RqLsrAdavvAyeYDfxh7K-QuACk1smSBxtNDI8sfMuwKWIc2q_iQQtou_VGhAGEmTXo9DQW46GGeMOEzobbyc_sc1_XZIFlFVjyu68ifkq6fj0I2SUxcjepCxp86Zbz6]
will help even more.
For instance:
* The National Bike Challenge helped inspire more than 30 thousand people to ride
over 12 million miles in 2012. Many were new riders who now share our enthusiasm
and increase the number of voices speaking out for bicyclists. Next year, with
your help, 50 thousand people will join our ranks and ride 20 million miles.
* Bicycle commuting in the biggest Bicycle Friendly Communities has increased a
whopping 80% since the year 2000. Imagine how wonderful biking would be across
the country if together we could gain similar results in every community!
* Thousands of everyday cyclists learn how to ride more safely through our Smart
Cycling program. If we get enough additional dollars from members like you, we
will expand the program and certify an additional 400 instructors. That would mean
thousands fewer bicycling accidents, injuries, and deaths.
Can I please count on your generous year-end gift to continue and expand these
programs?
Your tax-free donation will also work to help the League's efforts to:
* Gain increased funding for biking initiatives at the state and local levels,
so more people can safely enjoy biking - whether for commuting, sport, or fun.
* Learn the root causes of bicycle accidents on our roads and take concrete steps
to bring the number of cyclist deaths drastically down. (Is zero too low to aim
for?)
* Grow the number of bike-friendly businesses and universities so more people who
want to pedal to work or school, can!
Please donate online at http://www.bikeleague.org/give [http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?e=0011RqLsrAdavvAyeYDfxh7K-QuACk1smSBxtNDI8sfMuwKWIc2q_iQQtou_VGhAGEmTXo9DQW46GGeMOEzobbyc_sc1_XZIFlFVjyu68ifkq6fj0I2SUxcjepCxp86Zbz6].
You'll help make bicycling safer, more convenient, and fun for millions of Americans.
Remember, when we ride, we can't change the wind that sometimes seems always against
us. But we have the power to make other important changes. Together, we can improve
the roads we bike on... increase awareness of cyclists' needs ... prevent hostile
legislators from eliminating the gains we've made. Your support makes it all happen.
