LACBC supports its mission through various community events and advocacy efforts, including the annual Firefly Ball, where they honor advocates like the Ovarian Psychos with the Alex Baum Excellence in Advocacy Award. The group features interviews with its Executive Director, Tamika Butler, and engages with local media to discuss critical issues ranging from the dangers of mixed traffic and bike jacking to the realities of workplace cycling in a hot climate. Beyond local news, LACBC covers broader national and international cycling trends, including developments in bike planning in Berkeley, safety incidents in San Francisco and Oakland, and global cycling achievements. The coalition also promotes family-friendly cycling experiences, such as group rides to cultural events like LACMA Jazz Night and tours along the central coast, fostering a sense of community among riders of all ages. Through these activities, LACBC aims to improve the cycling environment, ensure the safety of riders, and celebrate the joy of biking in diverse settings throughout Los Angeles and beyond.
