Funding Sources
: The Bicycle Industry-Bikes Belong Campaign
The
Bikes Belong Coalition is sponsored by member companies of the American
bicycle industry. The Coalition's stated goal is to put more people
on bikes more often through the implementation of TEA-21. One of the
Coalition's primary activities is the funding of local bicycle advocacy
organizations that are trying to ensure that TEA-21-funded bicycle
or trail facilities get built. Grants are awarded for up to $10,000
on a rolling basis. By June 2000, almost $200,000 has been awarded
to advocacy organizations in the District of Columbia, Marin County,
CA, Milwaukee, WI, Dallas, TX, Los Angeles, New York City, Portland,
Maine, and others. Information about the Coalition, including grant
applications and related information, is on the web at: www.bikesbelong.org
