Richardson is becoming a great city to ride.
We are a group of bicycle advocates promoting the continued creation of better cycling facilities and improved infrastructure in Richardson. Our focus is on increasing the ridership of the average commuter, and those wanting to ride for transportation and pleasure over sport.
- Our goal is to increase ridership.
- Ridership increases awareness.
- Awareness increases safety.
If you are wondering: YES, we were completely inspired by the momentum and spirit of Bike Friendly Oak Cliff.
As we grow into our own community, you’ll see an urban-suburban flair emerge from our group. Of course, our core mission will always be the same.
Our focus will always be with Richardson ridership, but we share our advocacy with all of our DFW neighbors.
CONTRIBUTORS
Bike Friendly Richardson is not an exclusive club, but rather a voice for all non-sport cyclists in Richardson. This site is you, for you – and we welcome all contributions that benefit Richardson cyclists. We have a small group of facilitators that run this blog, manage the Facebook page and organize rides/events. Here are just a few of the many volunteers that help out:

I am stoked about this. I live in Richardson. I commute by Bike in Richardson, Dallas, Farmers Branch, and Addison.
Thanks
Thanks, Bill. I’m glad there’s such great support for the Richardson biking community.
Just came across your website – it’s great! I really like what you are doing, promoting biking in your community.
I commute to work on my bike EVERY day and have been doing so since 2006. It is 24 mile round trip and I love it. Most of my commute is in Plano, ending in Richardson near Glenville and Greenville.
So, while I’m going through your website I am wondering “Why isn’t there a Bike Friendly Plano?” Any suggestions on how to get this started in one’s own community?
Thanks for your comment.
As for starting out a Bike Friendly Plano goes, contact the folks over at Bike Friendly Oak Cliff – the originators of the latest, local bike friendly movement. They’ll get you started.
