Dear friend, I’m writing to you with an important announcement about an exciting new chapter at CalBike. In August, I’ll be stepping down as Executive Director of CalBike to take on a new role as Senior Director of Local Innovation at People for Bikes, a national organization dedicated to getting more people riding bikes more often. I’m thrilled about what this means for CalBike. We have a strong team of advocates who will benefit from fresh leadership. Our Board of Directors is working hard to ensure that our advocacy for more equitable communities, where bicycling enables joy, health, and prosperity, will not only survive but thrive. Our team is looking forward to beginning the search for a new executive director to guide CalBike through its next chapter. I’m delighted that Kevin Claxton, CalBike’s Operations Manager, will serve as Interim Executive Director. I’m proud of the impressive agenda the CalBike team has developed and now is the greatest opportunity to implement it. Thank you very much for everything you do to support this movement. I look forward to continuing to work on California issues in my new role and collaborating with CalBike. I'll see you in the bike lane! |
