Bike/Ped Leaders Return to the Thunderhead Ranch

Last week, nearly 40 leaders from the bicycle and pedestrian advocacy movement returned to where it all began: the Thunderhead Ranch in Wyoming. Marking the Alliance’s 15th anniversary, they reflected on how far the movement has come and how we can best move forward. Disconnected from the bustle of their everyday advocacy, they had the kinds of big-picture discussions that matched the wide-open skies and breathtaking expanses of remote Wyoming.
