Celebrating 10 years of pedals and progress

On this 10th anniversary of Biketoberfest, we celebrate the ways Sustain Charlotte has made it easier to get around by bike, thanks to support from our partners, donors, and over 5,000 Biketoberfest participants!

Together, our work has:

Led to a vision and map for a citywide bike network and a Bicycle Priority Network

Helped raise the standard for safer bike lane design

Increased funding for building bike lanes from $0 to $4M every year

Increased funding to build and expand greenways
