National Mayors' Ride 2006
Starting from Boston, relay teams of National Bicycle Greenway (NBG) cyclists will move across America, collecting support from the leaders of 30 other large population centers on their way to San Francisco. As these bicycle adventurers pass through supporting NBG Day cities, they receive proclamations in ceremonies ranging from fifteen minute certificate presentations to media extravaganzas that have included police escorts, newspaper, TV and radio interviews and hordes of photographers. Some have also seen displays and public speaking that celebrate advancements in the local two wheel way of life. All this energy converges on San Francisco, CA on July 30, 2006.
Our past photo galleries, blogs, rider bios and each city's NBG Day proclamation, etc, can all be accessed from the 2006 schedule!!

 | These bike friendly corridors will link our urban areas with our wilderness and other open space lands and they will be designed so that wildlife will be able to safely cross them. On the stretches between urban areas, markers along the Greenway will explain the history and geography of the various regions that one passes through. |
