Achieving a Vision
Presentation at the Congress for New Urbanism 20 conference:
In the video presentation above, I explain the root cause of the beliefs that inhibit bicycling in America, why the prevailing strategy can’t fix it, and offer a strategy that can. In addition to teaching people to be successful anywhere, this strategy includes many progressive infrastructure ideas that are cost-effective, versatile, expandable and supportive of successful bicyclists.

Strategy for a Cyclist-Friendly Community by Keri Caffrey
I am a technical illustrator and graphic designer with over 30 years as an urban bike commuter, recreational group rider and ride leader. I am convinced that the greatest challenges facing American bicycling are a lack of education and a destructive belief system about our public roads.
Through CyclingSavvy, Mighk Wilson and I created a toolset for bicyclists to enhance their preferred style of riding. Together, we can transform our traffic culture to recognize that roads are for all people, not just motorists.
