2017 Supporter Survey Findings: Your Bicycle/Transportation Habits, Concerns, and Thoughts
Last year we distributed a similar survey to our SVBC Members base, but this year we decided to expand our reach and get the opinions and thoughts of all our supporters to help us understand the bigger picture. We want to know more about all our supporters and how we can be the best bicycle coalition around – and reach our goal of seeing 10% of trips taken by bike by 2025.
Announcing the 2017 Silicon Valley Bike Summit Award Winners
For the second year, we are presenting awards for the following categories at the Silicon Valley Bike Summit on August 8 in Mountain View.

Bicycling from the Lawyers' Perspective
With our Bike Summit coming up, it got us thinking about some of the legal issues surrounding bicycling. We hope that we never collide with a car or need legal advice for some encounter we have on our bikes, but unfortunately these things happen. Fortunately, we know some great lawyers who handle bike cases, so we asked for their professional advice on a few key questions. In their answers, there was definitely some consensus and major themes worth noting.
