Going Above & Beyond with the Bicycle Friendly Business Program

Of course, every bike shop is friendly to bikes and goes above & beyond, but what does it take for a local bike shop to become certified as a Bicycle Friendly Business SM (BFB) by the League of American Bicyclists? Why would a customer choose a bike shop with a BFB designation, and what’s the difference between a shop that earns Bronze-level BFB status and Platinum status? 

The BFB program can help your shop build a network of bike educators and advocates for bicycling, reach more customers, spread more bike joy, and advocate for better bicycling in your community. Over the last 11 years, the League’s BFB program has helped over 300 local bike shops across the country go above and beyond the standard “bikes are our business” model and become the heart of growing and empowering their local bicycling community. Please join us to learn how the BFB program has worked for others and what it can do for your employees, your customers, and your community.
