Over 20 years ago, BikeTexas was founded as the Texas Bicycle Coalition to fight a bike ban in the state legislature. We as a cycling community joined together and won that battle, and many more since. The question is, what's next? Bike Texas wants to know what Houstonians think they should focus on for the next three to five years.
