Making a Difference:

  Bike Walk Tennessee was formed in August of 2009.  Since that time it has contributed to

We'll work for YOU, but

YOU need to help!

INVEST in the future of Bicycling and Pedestrian activities across your Tennessee.

1) We need to hire and fund a pro- fessional staff.  Volunteers will do their best, but like you they only have so much free time

2) We need to help form advocacy organizations in every major city and town in Tennessee -- where YOU live.

3) We need to make our roads and trails safe for ALL users.

As Ginny Sullivan of Adventure Cycling says about our efforts, "Tennessee is America

at its best."

ENJOY YOUR BIKE, JOG, HIKE?
