Get past your political biases and embrace a “bike-partisan” agenda. You’ll definitely hear that new outdoor buzz phrase at the National Bike Summit, which rolls back into Washington, D.C., for the tenth straight year from March 9-11. The League of American Bicyclists’ annual bike advocacy event combines two days of educational workshops on topics like two-wheel transportation safety, alternative commuting and sustainability in local communities, and youth cycling programs. The event culminates with a rally on Capitol Hill and a full day of opportunities to meet with members of Congress and lobby for bike legislation.
