Pedaling The D: Young and Savvy, Detroit Locals Behind the Bike Boom

Posted 11/07/13 by Rhonda Romano in Trail Use, Taking Action, Success Stories | Tagged with Local Organizing, Michigan, Urban Pathways, Young Champions

I was blown away by how much great stuff is happening in Detroit when we visited the city for our Cleveland/Detroit city swap earlier this year. But one of the initiatives really left an impression on me: Detroit Bike and Brunch.

Earn-A-Bike About More Than Just Wheels in East Baltimore

Posted 06/13/12 by Rails-to-Trails Conservancy in Trail Use | Tagged with Maryland, RTC in Action, Schools and Young People, Urban Pathways, Young Champions

Listening to the kids of East Baltimore in this video, it is clear they really switched on to the joys of riding a bike and looking after their local environment during Rails-to-Trails Conservancy's (RTC) Earn-A-Bike Program there earlier this spring.

Climate Riders Nearing the End of Their Amazing Adventure

Posted 05/22/12 by Rails-to-Trails Conservancy in Trail Use | Tagged with Community Events, Young Champions

Kyle Lukacs is part of Climate Ride 2012, a five-day ride that left New York City on Saturday, headed for Washington, D.C. When the nearly 200 riders arrive at the U.S. Capitol building tomorrow afternoon, Kyle will no doubt have plenty of great stories for us from this long and ever-changing ride, from the hustle and bustle of New York and New Jersey, to the quiet, curvy roads and green countryside of the Amish regions of Pennsylvania.

RTC Helps Spread the Joy of Riding to Baltimore Students

Posted 05/06/12 by Rails-to-Trails Conservancy in Trail Use | Tagged with Maryland, RTC in Action, Schools and Young People, Urban Pathways, Young Champions

Sometimes, it doesn't feel like work! Rails-to-Trails Conservancy's (RTC) trail development team members Kelly Pack and Lindsay Martin have been traveling up to Baltimore, MD., these past few weeks to help run an after school program teaching local kids some valuable bike skills, important bike safety, and even how to look after and maintain their machines.

With the 2012 New York to Washington, D.C. Climate Ride spectacular getting closer by the day, it is wonderful to hear from the people who are riding, volunteering and fundraising for Rails-to-Trails Conservancy (RTC) and the other great beneficiary organizations.
