BALTIMORE (BRAIN) — The League of American Bicyclists has canceled its National Bike Summit, which had been scheduled for March 15-17, because of COVID-19 concerns.
"Every year, we look forward to hosting hundreds of bike advocates for the National Bike Summit, but we cannot in good conscience proceed with a large gathering that could potentially put you, your loved ones, the venue staff, and others in the community at risk of exposure," the group said Tuesday. "We are investigating the best, most effective way to take our Summit content online, including our Lobby Day. Please continue to be engaged with the League's email and social media communications in the coming days to learn more."
Registered participants have the option to donate their full registration fee as a tax-deductible gift to the League or request a partial refund.
