The pandemic presents Marin with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

With Bike Month and Bike to Work Day quickly approaching, it’s time to once again recognize a bike-commuting superhero who makes everyday Bike to Work Day. As always, it was very difficult for us to narrow the many deserving nominees down to one. In the end, it was Brian Lehman’s co-workers at the California Film Institute who–unbeknownst to Brian–nominated him and sold us on his dedication to bicycling.

Volunteers make Bike to Work Day a fun, empowering celebration of the happiest, healthiest, and most sustainable form of transportation. Whether you’re able to stuff goodie bags, hang posters, or join us at Energizer Stations to cheer on our bike commuting heroes, we need your smiling face!

Paloma Ojeda is not only a member of MCBC, she volunteers regularly and even helped get some of her friends and coworkers on board as members. Most recently, Paloma was a participant in MCBC’s 7th annual Dirt Fondo. Here’s why she’s so passionate about cycling in Marin.

August was a great month for volunteering with MCBC, with volunteers serving hydration and snacks to Marin Century riders, and helping pull off one of our most successful Dirt Fondo events ever!. A warm thank you to all of our volunteers for helping spread the love in the MCBC cycling community – check out these photos
