Montgomery County Bicycle Action Group

Sponsored by the Montgomery County MCDOT Bikeway Program

The Montgomery County Bicycle Action Group (MCBAG) was created by the MCDOT in 1996 in order to gain input from citizens interested in recreational and on-road cycling issues. MCBAG is a group of citizens interested in recreational and on-road bicycling issues who gives advice to the Department on current issues, programs and projects relating to cycling in Montgomery County. The MCBAG meets monthly to discuss and recommend positions on various issues on bicycling on a regional and local basis. MCBAG has approximately 100 members who are contacted by an e-mail mailing list. Monthly meetings are held to discuss issues of impact and importance to on and off-road cycling in Montgomery County, Maryland. The e-mail list recipients also receive announcements of meetings and events of interest to cyclists. Anyone is welcome to attend.

MCBAG meetings are usually held the 3rd Thursday of every month.

ALL ARE WELCOME!
