BikeWalk Williamsburg BikeWalk Williamsburg is a 501c3 non-profit whose mission is to educate and advocate for the creation of a bike and pedestrian friendly community.

Our Mission:
To foster a bicycling and walking friendly Greater Williamsburg
Through education, communication, advocacy, and encouragement we help build a community where everyone can walk, run, and ride safely. Our focus is on the localities of Williamsburg, James City County, Charles City County, and York County. Through a wide variety of programs - classes, symposia, conferences, events, newsletters, websites, and presentations – we educate and advocate for safe places to bike and walk. Our goal is a seamless network of sidewalks, bike paths, and bike lanes that will encourage “everyone to bike or walk everywhere.”

We believe that:

- A bicycle and walking friendly community is one which provides for safe, convenient, and enjoyable active transportation for all ages and abilities.

- Both bicycling and walking are good for our health, our environment, our wallet, and our sense of well-being.

- The quality of life of all citizens is enhanced when no matter where we live, we can choose whether to bike, walk, take public transportation, or drive as we go about daily living. BikeWalk Williamsburg is not a membership organization. We carry out our programs with a dedicated group of volunteers and involved citizens who passionately share our Mission.

What a sight on the ferry this morning with the kick off of Broad Run Off Road’s Fall Foliage Adventure Race!

BikeWalk Williamsburg was there as partners and beneficiaries and to do final bike checks before racers headed out on a 5 or 15 hour biking, paddling, and trekking challenge (which some are STILL completing right now!!) If you missed out this year, be sure to register next time because they will be coming back in 2027 🎉

Weekend mornings are for community!

On Saturday, wear blue: run to remember Williamsburg, VA chapter held its monthly gathering in front of the William & Mary School of Business. Whether running, walking, over three miles or just one, people came together to honor the service and sacrifice of the American military through active remembrance.

William & Mary ROTC, student veterans both past and present, administrators, friends and family came out to represent on the second annual wear blue event at the school.
