I've worked very closely with the Bicycle Coalition Youth Cycling Program for 4 years and it is an amazing space for young people. I've had the privilege to meet youth who have grown so much in the program, both on and off the bike. I've watched youth over the past 4 years go from crashing their bike on most rides to competing in races. But more importantly I've seen them become leaders, guiding their peers and building strong reltaionships with one another.

Roll Wit' It 2025
Join the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia for Roll Wit It, a Gran Fondo-style bike event celebrating the region’s beautiful Schuylkill River, rolling hills, and unique culinary traditions. When you ride Roll Wit It, you have a direct impact on Philly’s high school youth and the future bike-scape of the region. Since 2013, the Bicycle Coalition Youth Cycling (BCYC) program has trained up the next generation of cycling enthusiasts and community leaders, building healthy habits, leadership, and independence, one ride at a time. Proceeds from Roll Wit It support the BCYC program's scholarship fund, empowering young athletes to achieve their dreams both on and off the bike.
Through advocacy and education, the Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia (BCGP) leads the movement to make every bicycle ride safe, to empower youth and adults to ride, and to foster a ridership that reflects the diversity of the region. Our vision is that, by the year 2040, anyone in the Philadelphia region can ride a bike confidently, joyfully, and free of traffic violence, on a network of connected circuit trails, bike lanes, and safe streets.
Our flagship education program, Bicycle Coalition Youth Cycling (BCYC) works with youth ages 12-18 across Philadelphia to build healthy habits, leadership, and independence through the sport of cycling. BCYC builds entry level to advanced competitive cycling skills with its teams through the progressive program tiers. Beginning by entering a core team at one of our ten partner sites, youth achieve increasing levels of accomplishment through holistic programming and mentorship.
