About the Project

Cycling Our Capital City will take a three-pronged approach to biking in Saint Paul: Teaching learn to ride, leading group rides, and educating on the best routes to ride. Minneapolis/Saint Paul are recognized nationally as great biking cities. Through providing cycling resources for the Saint Paul community, I hope to elevate biking, and continue to make it friendlier, safer, and more welcoming. I see bikes as a tool for connection and community, and I hope by empowering people to learn to ride and to put riding into practice in their lives, our communities will become more resilient and connected.
