Mike Amsden Bikeways Planner "Getting around on a bike is the most practical way to travel in a city as busy and congested as Chicago. It's great getting to wherever I'm going quickly, safely, and cheaply, while at the same time getting in some exercise." |

Christopher Gagnon Bike Parking Program Manager "When I was new to Chicago, I found using a bike for transportation to be a great way to meet people and make friends. Chicago has a thriving bicycling community, and there's always some cool bicycling-related activity or event going on, year round. And cycling through the winter helps keep me fit so when the nice weather returns, I'm ready for it!" |

Ben Gomberg Bicycle Program Coordinator "Bicycling is a great way to get around Chicago. It's fun, fast and good for the environment. I love getting to work in fewer than thirty minutes, parking my bike in seconds in front of my building, and starting work refreshed and in good shape." |
 |
Kate Ibara Share the Road Coordinator "Biking to work is an easy and fun way for me to incorporate exercise into my daily routine." |
 |
Joshua Koonce Bicycle Program Intern "Whether for transportation, leisure, or both, biking is the premiere way to move around Chicago. I often find that arriving at a location by the power of my own two legs makes the city feel more personal." |
 |
Dave Miller Bikeways Traffic Engineer "In a world-class city like Chicago, the smart way to travel is by bicycle." |
 |
Jack Ringness Engineering Intern "Large population centers around the globe have embraced biking to reduce congestion and cut down on pollution. If Chicago can do the same it can lead fellow North American cities into becoming more bicycle friendly." |
 |
Charlie Short Junior Ambassador Coordinator "Riding a bike in Chicago is better than peanut butter and sardines!" |
 |
Carlin Thomas Program Assistant, Mayor Daley's Bicycling Ambassadors |
 |
Steven Vance Bike Parking Assistant "There is not a faster or more fun way of traveling in this city than by bicycle." Issues about the website should be directed to Steven. |
 |
Frank Zurek Engineering Intern "Bicycling in Chicago is great! I love arguing with my friends over why bikes are better than cars. Not only do you get to your destination quicker as you rush past lines of jammed cars in a wide open bike lane, bikes are also the only vehicle on the road with unlimited miles per gallon." |
