BikeCalgary.org exists to inform, educate and inspire cyclists in Calgary, Alberta. We are interested in obtaining improved infrastructure and public acceptance for the use of the bicycle for transportation. [continues...]

On this site you'll find information on good and bad routes for cycle commuting, and forums for discussing those routes. Registered users also have their own blogs for talking about their riding experiences. There's also information on bike advocacy initiatives both in Calgary and elsewhere. And we'll try to provide information for the beginning commuter, or would-be cycle commuter, such as a list of bike buddies you can call upon. If you are a motorist, perhaps you'll find something here that will help you understand the need to share the road - and how to do it.

What this site is not: a bike club, or all things to all people. We won't be focusing on off-road or downhill riding, for instance.

Comments and suggestions are welcome; there's even a special forum for site improvement suggestions. This is a community-driven site, and we depend on your contribution! Here's how:

• Be a buddy: offer your riding skills and route-finding experience to new riders
• Foray into the forums, and ask a question, or submit an opinion
• Your ride is our read with your very own bike blog
• Sound off with a story about what's happening in the bike scene here in Calgary, or even elsewhere
• For even more ways to participate, check the create content link
