National Bike Summit 2014: United Spokes

Usually I have a rule to limit conference wrap-up videos to three to four minutes in length. But there were so many inspiring, great and laugh-out-loud funny moments at this year's League of American Bicyclists' National Bike Summit 2014, I felt it important to pack in all of the coverage we could, especially since the Women's Bicycling Forum has grown to be a large part of the event.

So sit back and enjoy many of the faces and fun that made this year's #NBS14 a big hit. Here's just a few of the gems you may only see here on Streetfilms!

- Watch as We Bike NYC arrives in DC after a 262 mile bike ride from NYC!

- Watch as U.S. DOT Secretary Anthony Foxx jokes about riding in the Tour de France!

- Listen as Dr. Naparstek & Dr. Gordon diagnose whether you have BIKELASH in your city!

- See Pittsburgh Mayor Bill Peduto as he unexpectedly nominates Bike Pittsburgh's Scott Bricker to the regional transportation board!

- Hear from Dr. Adonia Lugo about how the League of American Bicyclists' Equity Council is making great strides in diversifying the attendees and topics at this year's summit!

And so much more.

Holy Moly! Did my eyes not deceive me, or was there actually a sign at the LAB National Bike Summit that read, "Yes, I do wear spandex"?!?!

Admitting to such just a few years ago would have practically had you laughed out of the Bike Summit. This is indeed a good sign. It seems that the LAB hasn't forgotten that some cyclists like to get their "speed" once in a while. BRAVO!!

inclusion, right? you don't want to leave out the spandex-wearing folks, nor leave out the helmet wearing folks, etc.

Exactly! We are all cyclists whether we wear tweed on an English 3-speed or a $1000 kit on an Italian wunder bike worth ten times more. The LAB seemed to ignore the needs of the later for a few years now seems to be back on track representing EVERYBODY WHO RIDES!
