from the
chair
Greetings from the Chair of Bicycle Indiana
Wow, 2013 flew by, and 2014 has literally taken us by storm. January was not
favorable to cycling in Indiana, and I’m positive that most of you are looking
forward to riding the roadways, bike paths and trails in your local communities
and across the state. This year’s Resource Guide promises to be our best
yet, providing you with the most current information on what’s happening in
the state. You will find it packed with information about every type of bicycling,
retailers, events and topics that impact you as a cyclist. The Bicycle Indiana
Resource Guide is so much more than just a ride calendar.
Indiana’s ranking as a Bicycle Friendly State took another drop in 2013. Many
of the recommendations to improve Indiana’s ranking includes legislative
changes. Several bills were introduced in the 2014 legislative session that
could impact bicyclists and the cycling industry in Indiana. Some good -- some
not so good. These include SB49, an amendment to the existing motor vehicle
code to require the safe passing of a bicycle; HR1080, an amendment to the
existing motor vehicle code to allow bicyclists to proceed through a red traffic
signal; SB147, legislation for Complete Streets; and HR 1203, a maintenance
fee imposed on the purchases of non-exempt bicycles in order to established a
trail/greenway maintenance fund. Legislation such as HR1203 could create a
hardship for Indiana’s bike retailers. Legislation such as SB 49 and SB147 will
help improve Indiana’s ranking as a Bicycle Friendly State. To learn more about
Indiana’s 2013 bicycle friendly status, turn to page 19.
There are so many good things happening across the state that I can’t mention
them all, but I would like to highlight a few. Legislatively, several communities
have passed their own safe passing laws, including South Bend, Fort Wayne,
Carmel and Indianapolis. Infrastructure accommodations have occurred with
Evansville’s conversion of narrow four-lane streets into streets with three lanes
and bike lanes, Indianapolis’ expansion of bike lane routes, and Elkhart’s
expanded bike routes. Bicycle Indiana has assisted advocacy organizations with
mass distribution of bike lights, bells, helmets and reflective apparel. Partnering
with the Indiana State Department of Health and INDOT, we embarked on the
first statewide bicycle map, ranking the suitability of Indiana’s roadways for
bicyclists. The map should be published in the first quarter of 2014. Bicycle
Indiana’s ongoing programs include spIN - the Annual Bike Summit, the Riders
in the Know/Drivers In the Know safety program, and our Planning for a Bicycle
Friendly Community seminars and workshops.
I ask you to take a part in the movement toward a Bicycle Friendly Indiana.
Become a member of Bicycle Indiana. Show your pedal passion on your
automobile by purchasing a Bicycle Indiana license plate. Join the conversation,
the movement towards a healthier you, and we will work together to make
Indiana and your hometown more bicycle friendly.
Respectfully Submitted,
Darlene Wefel, Chairman

and commitment to improving
bicycling in Indiana:
Gold Members:
Annual Report:
Promote, Educate, and Advocate. Those are the three core areas to which Bicycle Indiana devotes
our time, programming and services. What does that mean for our members and constituents? What’s
in it for them? Sometimes it is difficult to answer that question because so much of the work we do is
intangible for the majority of our members and constituents. In fact, you’re holding (or perhaps reading
electronically) the most visible product Bicycle Indiana provides, the Bicycle Indiana Resource Guide,
which promotes all types of bicycling events and activities throughout Indiana.
Our education programs include educating both people who rides bikes (often referred to as cyclists)
and motorist about safe roads for all. We understand that the term “Share the Road” could be outdated
soon! In 2013, we launched two new educational programs, “Drivers In The Know” and “Riders In the
Know”; we’ll be expanding both of those programs in 2014.
Additionally, we provide educational material and reference publications to organizations throughout
Indiana for events such as First Fridays, Safety Days, Health Fairs, Bike Month, and more. In fact, in
2013 Bicycle Indiana distributed the following literature:
•
Coloring Books (English & Spanish)
1,837
•
Law Cards (English & Spanish)
3,907
•
Safe Bicycling in Indiana
2,458
•
Share The Road Brochure (Kids & Adults)
1,408
We also helped organizations purchased helmets, reflective wear, and more.
Although advocating for bicycling can be similar to promoting bicycling, there are a few differences.
Bicycle Indiana participated in the 2013 National Bike Summit, visiting our U.S. legislators in Washington
D.C.
In partnership with the Indiana State Department of Health along with elected officials and employees
of local communities, we also facilitated nine “Planning for a Bicycle Friendly Community” seminars.
(See page 19 for more information about Indiana’s Bicycle Friendly status).
We are able to offer these program and services because of our members and constituents. Those of
you who are members, make donations, purchase the I Share The Road license plate, and support
programs like the Annual Bike Summit. In fact, we couldn’t do it without you.
Thanks for helping to make 2013 such a exciting year. We look forward to providing more programs
and services in 2014!

categories, as to their bicycle friendliness. This ranking is based on numerous factors, including
a highly detailed questionnaire completed by a state employee. In Indiana, the questionnaire is
completed by INDOT’s Bicycle-Pedestrian Coordinator. While many of Indiana’s communities,
businesses and universities are showing their bicycle-friendly prowess, unfortunately, the state
appears to have none.
In 2011, Indiana was ranked 19. In 2012 Indiana was ranked # 30. In 2013 Indiana’s ranking as a
Bicycle-Friendly State has fallen to # 42 and many people want to why. One possible interpretation
is that by keeping the status quo and doing only what some may consider basic requirements is
not enough. While Indiana seems to be standing still, many other states are making positive gains.
Indiana must be proactive if we expect the trend to change.
Washington State took the number one spot in 2013 – the most Bicycle Friendly State. Yes, that
would be our liberal friends out west. As Hoosiers, we often don’t like the comparison, or at least think
the comparison is not just. By that reasoning, we should compare Indiana with other Midwestern
states like Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, and Kentucky. Here’s how they ranked:
•
•
•
•
#9 Illinois
#12 Michigan
#32 Ohio
#47 Kentucky
Thank goodness we were at least ranked higher than our neighbors to the south, but not by much! If
so many other comparable states are ranked so much better than Indiana, what do we need to do to
improve our ranking? According to the report card provided by LAB, they recommend the following:
1. Adopt a statewide safe passing law with a minimum distance of 3 feet to address bicycle safety
2. Adopt a vulnerable roadway user law that increases penalties for a motorist that injures or kills a
bicyclist or a pedestrian
3. Adopt a statewide, all ages cell phone ban to combat distracted driving
4. Adopt performance measures…to better track and support Complete Streets/Bike
Accommodation Policy compliance
5. Adopt a state bicycle design manual
6. Adopt a federal funding project rating criteria that incentivize bicycle projects and
accommodations
7. Dedicate state funding for bicycle projects and programs
8. Conduct a share the road campaign
9. Adopt performance measures to decrease bicycle fatalities
10. Adopt a mode share goal for biking
18
The report card also defines the Top 10 (nice that they would use a term coined by a Hoosier), signs
of success and Indiana’s performance toward those success measures:

Some wonder why it matters. Why would Indiana want to be a bicycle friendly state? Who cares?
It’s obvious that Bicycle Indiana cares, but communities, employers, and residents should also care.
“New business and residents aren’t just looking at tax rates and school districts anymore; they want
to settle in a state with rich outdoor opportunities and safe transportation options for their entire family
or workforce.”
Businesses and the tourism industry also benefit from a state and community being bicycle friendly.
“Bicycle tourism can be a major driver of economic development, and corporations can capitalize on
reduced healthcare costs. By making streets comfortable and accessible for cyclists, bicycle friendly
states increase safety of all road users and give residents transportation choices that save money
and improve health.” Copied from the League of American Bicyclists Building a Bicycle Friendly
America brochure.
The bottom line: If we want to stay in the bottom of the rankings, we can just stay the course. If we
want to improve Indiana’s ranking, we need significant changes.
“If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always got.” Henry Ford

program in 2011. Since
that time, the League has
awarded 68 universities with
the designation. As with
the award designations in
the other bicycle friendly
programs, the entry-level
designation is bronze, and
the highest designation is
platinum.
Only one of Indiana’s
universities has received
this designation. Indiana
University, Bloomington
Indiana was awarded the bronze Bicycle Friendly University award in the first year of the program,
March 2011.

bike smart
and stay
safe
As with all outdoor activities
you need to take some action
when bicycling to prevent
injuries and to make the activity
more enjoyable. Here are some
safety tips for bicycling.
1. Always Wear Your Helmet
– Be sure it covers your
forehead and fits properly.
Helmets are for all ages
– set a good example to
others by wearing your
bicycle helmet every time
you ride.
2. Ride on the Right – Always
ride with traffic.
3. Obey All Traffic Laws – Stop
at stop signs and stop lights
and obey one-way streets.
4. Signal and Look before
turning.
5. Ride in a Predictable
Manner – Ride in a straight
line. Don’t swerve between
parked cars.
6. Use Head and Tail Lights at
Night – Reflectors are not
enough.
7. Keep Your Bike in Good
Repair – Have it tuned
up by a professional bike
mechanic regularly.
8. Yield to Pedestrians
– Pedestrians have the right
of way.
9. Ride Defensively. Follow
the rules of the road. In
Indiana, the bicycle is a
vehicle and has all the
rights and responsibilities of
other vehicles. This means
stopping at stop signs and
stoplights, riding on the
right side of the road, and
signaling for turns.
10. Drink before you’re thirsty,
eat before you’re hungry.
Take along plenty of water.
24
Use sports drinks for
longer rides. Snacks to
take along include cereal
bars, cookies, fig bars,
and fruit (bananas, apples
are best).
11. Items You Should Carry:
Identification, money
(for ice cream or other
goodies along the ride),
tools, spare inner tube,
bicycle pump. There are
many different bags that
you can attach to your
bike that could carry what
you’ll need for the day.
12. Plan a Ride less than
10 miles when riding with
small children, those who
haven’t bicycled very
much or if the terrain is
challenging. Plan stops
along the route or have
a destination in mind for
the ride.

indiana paved trails & greenways
resources
Indiana has two organizations whose work supports paved trails and greenways - the Hoosier Rails to Trails Council and the
Greenways Foundation. Both organizations are headquartered in Indianapolis and their work benefits all Hoosiers.
Hoosier Rails to Trails Council:
Since 1987 HRTC has participated in and advocated for rail-trails, trails generally, bikeways, safe bicycling, walkways, pedestrianism, public
transportation, wise land use, and healthy lifestyles.
Originated as the first proponent of the Monon Rail-trail, HRTC steered Indianapolis to acquire and build the Monon. HRTC has also lobbied
for trail bills, complete streets policies, and safe bicycling in the Indiana General Assembly.
Additionally, HRTC has hosted legislative lunches in promoting state policies for trails and provides technical and advocacy support to
persons in national, state, and local groups about corridor preservation and trails.
HRTC offers the most complete website about Indiana trails – specifically rail trails – including trail maps, trail descriptions, trail pictures, and
statewide news, policies, video histories and additional information.

bike trails
Mountain Bike trails in Indiana are supported by mountain bike
enthusiasts who help to build, maintain, and monitor the trails.
Two organizations in Indiana are instrumental in their efforts to
increase Indiana’s mountain bike trails along with the awareness
of the trails.
If you have an interest in participating, volunteering, or riding
Indiana’s mountain bike trails and would like more information
contact:
Hoosier Mountain Biking Association (HMBA)
www.hmba.org
Northern Indiana Mountain Biking association (NIMBA)
www.nimba-bike.org
The following locations/areas have dedicated mountain bike
trails. It is always a good idea to check with the location to
ensure the trail is open prior to your trip.

Be prepared – Know your
equipment, your ability,
the weather, and the area
you are riding and prepare
accordingly. A well-planned
ride will go smoothly for you
and your companions.
Don’t ride on closed trails –
Whether it is to protect the
environment or for ride
safety, a closed trail is off
limits for a reason. Riding
closed trails is not only
illegal; it gives mountain
bikers a bad reputation.
6.
Ride slowly on crowded trails –
Just like a busy highway, when
trails are crowded you must
move slowly to ensure safety
for all trail users.
7.
Pass with courtesy and care –
Slow down when approaching
other trail users and
respectfully make others aware
you are approaching. Pass with
care and be prepared to stop if
necessary.
8.
Share the trail – Mountain
bikers, hikers, and equestrians
share multi-use trails.
Remember: mountain bikers
should yield to hikers and
equestrians.
Say no to mud – Riding
a muddy trail can cause
unnecessary trail widening
and erosion that may lead to 9.
long-lasting damage.
Don’t do unauthorized trail
work – Unauthorized or
illegal trail work may lead to
environmental damage, injury
or even potential trail closure.
Respect the trail, wildlife
and the environment – Be
sensitive to the trail and it
surroundings by riding softly 10. Get involved – If you want
and never skidding. Do

Stay on the trail – Do not
intentionally ride off trail.
Riding off trail can damage
the ecosystem. Never cut
