It was so much fun to go to the launch of Chicago Bike PAC. I got to see old and new bike friends, and got reminded of why we do what we do - improving safety to get more people on bikes! If you want more bike infrastructure, donate at: www.bikepac.org

Evanston’s municipal election is just weeks away and Chicago Bike PAC is endorsing candidates in the council and mayoral races. The city has real potential to build robust bike infrastructure in the next four years and with just nine wards, every seat matters! If you live in #Evanston, Vote bikes!

Packed room to hear about the proposed bike lane on #Chicago Ave in #Evanston. Lots of NIMBYs, but lots of bike supporters too. #bikechi

Tucked into a #Chicago citywide poll posted on @capitolfax.bsky.social this week: bike taxes! The idea is 12 points underwater, but that’s too close for comfort. Call your alders, #bikechi! #NoBikeTax! CC @andrefor40th.bsky.social @bikegridnow.org @bscactionfund.org

This is why bike advocacy and political giving matters. Don’t Ontario my Illinois. #ElectBikeChampions
