Why support Bicycling Monterey? See what Monterey Bay Region bike advocates say
Below, see what some other Monterey Bay bike advocates—Bike Santa Cruz County and Cyclelicious / Rich Masoner (an active advocate since 2005 and a member of Santa Cruz County Regional Transportation Commission’s Bicycle Advisory Committee)— say about the Bicycling Monterey work.
“She’s a single woman”
Bicycling Monterey represents Monterey County as a local partner of the California Bicycle Coalition. Many people have a mistaken perception that Bicycling Monterey is an organization with paid staff, not a grassroots effort founded and directed by a single volunteer.
“trying to improve things over an entire county”
It’s a big county—3,771 square miles. From the start, Bicycling Monterey has done outreach of many different types in all local cities and in many unincorporated communities of the county, from Pajaro to San Ardo.
“on her own dime”
While some project supplies have been contributed, the total of all financial contributions 2009-2022—before expenses—for this website and all Bicycling Monterey projects averaged three dollars ($3) a day.
“and her own time.”
Well over 20,000 hours have been given by Bicycling Monterey’s founder to make the Bicycling Monterey resources and projects possible.
