The 2026 AYCE has a special jersey featuring a rocket this year, in honor of the successful, recent Artemis launch.
Its the Ares V, that many local aerospace folks worked on prior to the program being canceled and renamed Artemis. Most of the Ares effort went into the Artemis design. Pre-order jerseys when you register.
***Save some bucks, register for the AYCE before August 6!!

If you've already registered, or just want a bright visible jersey with a rocket on it, you can pre-order an AYCE Ares jersey at the Primal store:

All jerseys must be ordered by ~July 27 and will be available for pick up at the AYCE, Sept 26 in Huntsville, AL..

If you are real about a fundamental transition of our streets, you need to challenge the implicit design priorities.

Any inclusive street pyramid🔻 should put nature and human life on top (by Gemeente Utrecht, see comments).

If you want to be as efficient as you possibly can be, build yourself a nice aerodynamic recumbent velomobile with a small e-bike assist motor this summer.

Greetings Alabama Cycling Advocates!

Each year, the League of American Bicyclists (LAB) hosts a National Bike Summit (NBS) in Washington DC.
The NBS hosts bike rides, plenaries, mobile workshops and informative sessions on many topics, as well as a hill walk communicate with Congressional offices.
AlaBike would like to find folks from all seven Congressional districts to attend the 2026 NBS in Washington DC and we have set aside a monetary stipend to encourage folks to register.
When constituents visit, there is always more impact to the message.
I have been to the NBS many times and I always learn something and have a blast in Wash DC. You can ride anywhere there and there is so much to see and do.

Early registration ends Jan 31, so if interested, please contact your AL state coordinator, Jamie Miernik, ASAP. Let's make an impact this year and let Congress know that cyclists in Alabama demand better, safer facilities. The NBS experience will be worth it for any cycling advocate!

U.S. bicycle sales have recovered from the boom and subsequent decline during the pandemic, with the market now generating billions of dollars in revenue. Although traditional bikes still dominate, e-bikes are steadily gaining ground. In the U.S., cycling is about both leisure and transport: nearly half of riders cycle mainly for recreation, while just over half use their bikes for commuting or running errands.

Let's take a closer look at the people behind this trend: the American cycling community!
