The San Diego County Bicycle Coalition is a California 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization "dedicated to making bicycling better in San Diego." It aims to do this through educational programs, promoting awareness of bicyclists and bicycling issues, reviewing infrastructure improvements, and acting as a voice for bicyclists to elected officials and decisionmakers throughout the San Diego region.
The coalition represents all of San Diego County instead of only a single city since there are many medium-sized cities in the county that are currently too small to support their own bicycle advocacy groups. The San Diego County Bicycle Coalition has a dues-paying membership of about 1,000 people, and a full-time Executive Director, Kathy Keehan.

“Mining today is an affair of mathematics, of finance, of the latest in engineering skill. Cautious men behind polished desks in San Francisco figure out in advance the amount of metal to a cubic yard, the number of yards washed a day, the cost of each operation. They have no need of grubstakes.”
—Merle Colby, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“In the County Tyrone, in the town of Dungannon,”
—Unknown. The Old Orange Flute (l. 1)
“I well recall my horror when I heard for the first time, of a journalist who had laid in a pair of what were then called bicycle pants and taken to golf; it was as if I had encountered a studhorse with his hair done up in frizzes, and pink bowknots peeking out of them. It seemed, in some vague way, ignominious, and even a bit indelicate.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
