Adventure Cycling Association

2010 Annual Report

Because of your support, Adventure Cycling enjoyed the best year ever in promoting bicycle travel and bicycling throughout North America. On behalf of the Board of Directors, I want to thank you for your loyalty and generosity. Even though the economy is still rebounding, you found it possible to renew your memberships (often for multiple years, saving costs and trees) and give more generous donations than ever before.

As a result, our remarkable staff and volunteers stuck to their end of the bargain, working to inspire people of all ages to travel by bicycle. Our routes and mapping staff completed the spectacular 2,478-mile Sierra Cascades Bicycle Route — and took the Adventure Cycling route network over 40,000 miles, the largest mapped network of bike-friendly routes in the world. Our cartographic crew also conducted research on a revamped Atlantic Coast route and a new Underground Railroad alternate route through Michigan. All the while, they updated 32 map sections, keeping our pledge to produce the best and most up-to-date cycling maps anywhere.

We continued to publish one of your favorite magazines, Adventure Cyclist, nine times and to great acclaim, and we maintained the online Cyclists’ Yellow Pages, our global guide to bicycle travel. The bicycle travel community bloomed in 2010, as we met with members, officials, and advocates in more than a dozen states — and saw our virtual community grow, with 25,000 “fans” on Facebook, 40,000 subscribers to our free e-newsletter Bike Bits, and lots of activity on our redesigned online discussion forums, Flickr, YouTube, and Twitter. (You can connect to all of these at www.adventurecycling.org.)

In 2010, we invested more time than ever in promoting better bicycling conditions. Most exciting, we saw many states leap forward to create an

official U.S. Bicycle Route System (USBRS). Twenty-nine states (up from 12 last year) plus the District of Columbia are working with us to create what will likely become the largest official bike network in the world. Additionally, we worked at the federal and state levels to encourage smarter investments in bike facilities — and against projects (like the poor application of rumble strips) that would make it harder for cyclists to use America’s roads and trails.

All of our efforts added up to new milestones for Adventure Cycling: more maps sold, more visibility, more tours and tour participants, more donations, and more cycling visitors to our Missoula headquarters (nearly 1,100!). Just as important, we now have tremendous momentum going into 2011 — to develop our next epic route (Bicycle Route 66), establish the first new official U.S. Bicycle Routes in nearly three decades, elevate bicycle travel in the global tourism industry, and much more.

The main reason all of this happens is the partnership between you, our members and supporters, and the staff and volunteers who work so hard to make bicycle travel more enjoyable and accessible for hundreds of thousands of people every year. Thank you and enjoy this report, which details what our partnership makes possible.

Carol York

President Adventure Cycling Board of Directors

In 2010, Adventure Cycling Association pursued three strategic campaigns:

• Creating Bike Routes for the Nation• Getting More People Traveling by Bicycle• Supporting Bicycling Communities

Adventure Cycling Association is North America’s largest nonprofit bicycling membership organization. Our mission is to inspire people of all ages to travel by bicycle for fitness, fun, and self-discovery. We enrich lives and connect communities by creating state-of-the-art bike routes and maps, leading unique bike tours, publishing the award-winning Adventure Cyclist magazine, working on important projects such as the U.S. Bicycle Route System and outreach to young people, testing and selling bike travel gear, and providing bicycle travel information. The proceeds from our tours, sales, memberships, and fundraising efforts are used for our nonprofit initiatives to promote and improve cycling and bicycle travel in the U.S. and beyond.Adventure Cycling staff outside our headquaters in Missoula, Montana.

CREATING BIKE ROUTES FOR THE NATION

These Washington cyclists, all 21-years-old, really stacked up on their Transam tour. Evan (second from top) recalled his lunch in Missoula, “2 McDoubles, 1 McChicken, 4 apple pies, 1 ice cream cone, and 1 hot fudge sundae.”

John Replinger, a Bikecentennial 76 rider, and his wife, Valerie, rode from Portland, OR to Washington, DC with their nine-year-old triplets. As a reward for their 93-day trek, each triplet was promised their own dog when they returned home.

On a solo and self-contained trip from Yorktown, VA to Astoria, OR, Benjamin Horne wished to “dispell the belief that unicyclists are only performers.” Limited to just a pack on his back, he carried only the bare essentials: an Apple iPod Touch, but no tent.

These 14 women, all University of Illinois students, were part of the “Illini 4000 for Cancer” charity ride. The group rode from New York City to San Francisco and raised more than $100,000 for the American Cancer Society.

SUPPORTING BICYCLING COMMUNITIES

These California cyclists got together for a west to east Transam. Although they experienced very hot and humid weather between Colorado and Virginia, it was still enjoyable thanks to “the friendliness and generosity” of the people they encountered.

Australians William and Lauren Dunstan traced the trail of William’s grandfather, who rode the Transam in 1976 and published the book It’s All Uphill. “Each night we read the relevant passage after passing through the same towns he did 34 years ago.”

Crossing the U.S. 13 times, William Montigny is no stranger to the Adventure Cycling office in Missoula. On this trip, from Cape Cod, MA to Seattle, WA, William signed up as a Life Member. He also became the first person to do so while cycling. Membership Director Julie Huck had to mount up to receive his membership form.

Several international cyclists swap stories in our cyclists’ lounge. From left to right, Barbara Seymour, Australia; Stuart Woolger, UK; Fred Seymour, Australia; Gosse Koolstra, Netherlands; Klaas Van Der Els, Netherlands. All five of this group were Transamers, the Seymours on a tandem and both 77-years-old.
