Help Shape the Future of Bicycling: Apply to Run for the League Board
The League of American Bicyclists is seeking candidates for our Board of Directors and we’d love for you to apply! We are looking for passionate, committed people to join our Board of Directors who want to help guide the League in our mission to build a Bicycle Friendly America for everyone.
The League’s mission is to create a Bicycle Friendly America for everyone, and the board is an essential part of making that happen. As a board member, you’d play a meaningful role in guiding the organization by supporting the League’s financial health and shaping our efforts to amplify the voice of people who bike. We encourage candidates from all kinds of backgrounds: advocacy, finance, law, communications, community organizing — and of course someone with a passion for bikes and for sharing their skills.
Here’s how to apply: put together a statement of qualifications that speaks to how you meet the seven qualifications on this page, and send it along with your resume, a short bio, and a photo to gover...@bikeleague.org by May 30, 2026.
From there, the Governance Committee will review all applications and confirm who makes it onto the ballot. Qualified candidates will be posted on our blog in mid-July, voting will open in August, and new board members are officially seated at our board meeting in October. Just make sure you’re a League member by August 9, 2026, if you’d like to vote.Questions or want to learn more? Find the full timeline and process on our Board elections page.
