A 501(C)(3) non-profit organization since 2000, BikeWalk Virginia works through programs, projects, and activities to inspire more human powered recreation and transportation both on bike and on foot.
Biking makes sense. It is economical, environmentally friendly, and healthy.
You can burn calories instead of fossil fuels and get more engaged in your community’s sights and sounds as you go. Your wallet will thank you too, biking around for errands and for your commute can save both wear and tear on your car and fuel expenses. You might even get a lower mileage discount on your insurance or decide you don’t need a car at all! And don’t forget, it makes you feel like a kid again.
Walking is too good to ignore.
We started out getting around on foot, so why did we give it up? Community design, urban sprawl, the need to do everything faster, and maybe some plain laziness have led our society to shy away from walking. Now entire communities have are dangerous to those who want to or need to walk. At BikeWalk Virginia we believe that walking is too good to ignore and want to help inspire walking in the individual and walkability in design.
We want the environment to be better.
We want obesity to go away.
We want human powered transportation optons.
We want active living to be possible for all of Virginia.
