Welcome to the Bike & Walk Montclair group & listserv.

"Bike Montclair" was founded in 2002 [name change in 2009] with the idea that Montclair could one day become a safe haven for walking & bicycling. Today, we’re a small but dedicated group of volunteers that envisions bicycling & walking as a safe, appealing & feasible choice for all users and all trips thus building a strong community fabric on a more human scale. We eagerly seek new members. You can start here!
