5th Grade National Bike Poster Contest Winner meets with Representatives to Discuss Biking

saris — Thu, 22 Mar 2012 05:00:00 GMT

May was recognized during the opening ceremony at the National Bike Summit on March 20. During the recognition ceremony, May spoke to an audience of over 800 bike industry representatives, transportation officials and planners, and bike advocates from the across the country. "I love to ride my bike but can't ride to school because my Dad thinks it is too dangerous and there are no paths or sidewalks to ride on."

May and her family also spent time with Congressman James Lankford, met with Senator Jim Inhofe's office, and spent time experiencing Washington D.C., including using the Washington D.C. Capital Bike Share system to tour the city via bike.

"We are at a serious juncture where decisions are being made to cut critical federal funding for Safe Routes to School. Safe Routes is an essential program which creates safe places for our kids to actively get to school. Less than fifteen percent of our youth are riding their bikes to school. We have the highest obesity rates in the world. In countries where large percentages of kids ride bikes to school you do not see the obesity rates that we have in our country. It is critical for the health of our kids that we continue to fund the Safe Routes program," explained SCG President Chris Fortune. "We brought May to D.C. so we could recognize her for her amazing poster. She is an inspiration to us all because she represents the next generation of our country who value the importance of having safe places to ride a bike."
