“Nancy Eckert was a vital and invaluable partner in the development of the Ava Bike Electric program in the East San Francisco Bay Area.  In particular, she led the development of partnerships with local community organizations, bike shops, and bike manufacturers to form mutually beneficial relationships.  She did it all with her personal and professional dedication to the goal of getting more people on e-bikes.

"Nancy Eckert is a positive, passionate, professional bike educator and promoter. We were lucky to have her help to launch and coordinate the EZ Bike Project at SBCAG. Nancy is a natural leader dedicated to continuing to innovate new ways to introduce people to bikes.  As the EZ Bike coordinator, she handled agreements with the bike industry, attended conferences to represent the EZ Bike Project, and was an excellent boots on the ground bike educator working directly with people of all ages and backgrounds at our EZ Bike Project pop-up events and demos." -- Kent Epperson, Director of Traffic Solutions

The Bike SLO County e-bike lending library launched in March 2023.  In partnership with HASLO (Housing Authority of San Luis Obispo) and with the support of many local transportation and environmental agencies as well as local bike shops, we have a lending project that's a win for everyone in the community.  

We look forward to getting more people on bikes and helping SLO meet their climate and transportation goals.
