New Yorkers for bicycling
Pledge badge |
If you sign the pledge, you can receive one of several Bicycle Ambassador Badges "T.A. wants you to show off the way you ride. When a bicyclist is well-behaved, passing cyclists feel pressure to do the same. If we all wear our behavior on our sleeve (or back or bag), the message becomes a movement.":
I pledge my support for the three pillars of safe cycling in New York:
As a bicyclist, I vow to ride safely and create a positive street environment. As a pedestrian, transit rider or driver, I support the right to safe travel for New Yorkers who choose bicycling and recognize that we're all better off when everyone has safe space to travel. In the interest of a greener, greater New York, I call on my elected and appointed officials to do the same.
Signed,
- Responsible riding is safer for everyone.
- Bike lanes keep everyone out of each other's way and out of harm's way.
- A robust public bike share program empowers New Yorkers with more transit choices.
