The League's Club of the Year program recognizes outstanding clubs for their hard work and dedication and for encouraging cycling and providing a forum for their community to ride. The League's membership is comprised of many successful and motivated clubs, making the decision process difficult. Andy Clarke, President of the League, said, "The League is delighted to recognize all of the 2008 Clubs of the Year for their efforts to promote cycling and camaraderie amongst cyclists. We applaud these clubs for their willingness to invest time and effort to make cycling fun and beneficial to their region."

The NBW is a stalwart member and supporter of the league's education programs and is one of the largest and most active clubs in the Northeast.They offer hundreds of rides each year - there are cue sheets for more than 150 great rides on their and maintain close connections with statewide and local advocacy issues, including the Providence Bicycle Coalition.

Congratulations to the NBW for this recognition! If you are a cyclists in and around Rhode Island, you probably already know what a great job the NBW does organizing rides, big and small, all year long.

What you may not be quite as familiar with is the growing advocacy efforts in and around Providence. You can find out more information about what's happening on the advocacy front by visiting the Providence Bicycle Coalition website at:
