Program areas at Bike Easy
Bike Easy works to educate the community on safe conduct for people on bikes. From 4th graders to grandparents, we help people learn to safely and confidently ride their bikes. We also educate drivers, community leaders, and those charged with enforcing our traffic laws about the benefits of cycling and their role in ensuring easy, fun, and safe bicycling for everyone.
Bike Easy helps people discover the joy of bicycling through community events and social activities. More people riding bikes increases safe behavior on our streets, builds public support for more bikeways, and adds to the growing momentum for Greater New Orleans to be a great bicycling region!
Bike Easy builds public support through grassroots organizing and community dialogue to ensure that elected officials and decision-makers prioritize safe and accessible bicycling. We push for streets built to share by being a political voice for people who bike, cultivating and supporting champions of better bicycling, and continually listening to the community's needs in order to amplify them. Our advocacy interfaces with other important issues like walking safety, transit access, health equity, affordable housing, green infrastructure, economic development for all, and more.
