Strategic plan

NECCD is building the practical side of inclusive cycling.

The coalition’s plan centers on education, outreach, community engagement, and stronger partnerships with clubs and organizations across New England.

Mission

Foster a more inclusive and diverse cycling community in New England through education, outreach, and community engagement.

Vision

A welcoming cycling community that reflects the diversity of the region, where more riders feel valued and respected.

Current priorities

Inclusive rides, educational resources, club surveys, outreach to underrepresented communities, and partnerships with local organizations.

How progress shows up

More diverse ride participation, better club resources, useful educational programming, and stronger community partnerships.

Routes

Black history route collection is being built.

This section will collect rides, walks, and site notes connected to Black cycling history and civil rights history across New England.

What belongs here

Route files, cue sheets, cemetery and monument stops, public history notes, partner-led rides, and short context for ride leaders.

Have a route or site?
