East Bay Bicycle Coalition logo

East Bay Bicycle Coalition has been working for over 35 years to make bicycling in the East Bay safer, easier and more enjoyable.The Bicycle Coalition loves the Car Free Challenge: it's a great way to spend a little less time in your car and a little more time on your bicycle. And if you're already car-free, the Challenge is a great way to let your friends, family and neighbors know that bicycling is a happy healthy and cost-effective way to get around town. Thanks for joining our team and supporting our bicycle advocacy work in 33 cities in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties along while you support our coalition partner, TransForm.

My first day of the CFC started out like a regular weekday. I got on my bicycle and rode to work. This particular morning was slightly different, in that my legs felt tired. Why?
