Unfortunate news to share with you all this morning. We’ve had $12,000 worth of BCycle equipment stolen. We love our community and just want people to have access to bikes. If you can help us out, consider donating or riding a BCycle! 💚
A little update on how our e-bike builds are going! We're working hard to get these put together quickly and safely so you all can try out the first electric bikes in Des Moines. Big thanks to @ridedart for providing the space for this to happen. Stay tuned for more updates!
Thank you to everyone who joined us last night for the ABC’s of Cycling with the Des Moines Bicycle Collective @BcycleDesMoines. Stay up to date with upcoming outdoor programs by following our events calendar. https://t.co/hIELsjPdKt

Register for the Eno Center for Transportation Webinar on Complete Streets on March 25th from 1-1:45 CST:
- impacts of the pandemic on street use
-importance of equity in planning & design
-what might be next for complete streets in the wake of COVID-19

Currently, we prioritize speed over safety when designing our streets putting more people at risk. It’s not a lack of enforcement or driver error but simply dangerous by design.

Even with driving down, pedestrian deaths have increased by 45% in the last decade. The risk is not evenly distributed. “…People of color, older adults, and people walking in low-income neighborhoods were killed at significantly higher rates.”
Do you know where your closest @BcycleDesMoines station is? You can now grab a ride in #DesMoines at Easter Lake Beach and Raccoon River Park! #bicycles
