As pandemic restrictions continue to ease and life returns to normal, the Bicycle Coalition of Maine has re-opened our office to employees and visitors! However, we cannot guarantee someone will always be at the office to greet you, so if you’d like to meet with a BCM staff member, please make an appointment via email ahead of time. We look forward to seeing you all soon!
Slow ME Down
Speeding endangers cyclists, pedestrians, and drivers. Even small increases in speed increase the lethality of a crash with a vulnerable user, and speed affects everything from how fast a car can stop to how quickly a moment of distraction becomes a disaster. Learn more and sign our Slow ME Down letter of support here.
