We love that bike events come in all shapes and sizes, and taco shells?! 🌮

The Taco Bell Century in Denver had over 100 riders this year.

Not only did they tackle the gastrointestinal challenges of hitting 10 Taco Bells across 100 miles, but they also raised $3,500 for Bicycle Colorado.

Plus, two of the unicyclists finished at 4 am the following day! That's a 20-hour day.

Yesterday, Senate Bill 26-072, a bill that will help hold dangerous drivers accountable who hit and kill other people, passed the House and was sent to the Governor for his signature. Many people worked tirelessly over many years (dating back to 2019) to help make this happen. Over this time, far too many lives have been lost. To all the families who have lost loved ones to traffic violence and worked tirelessly to pass this law, thank you! We are honored to stand with you to advocate for safe streets.

We’re also grateful to AAA Colorado, Bike Jeffco, MADD Colorado, Thewhiteline.org, and the law enforcement community. Your thought partnership and advocacy helped make this happen. Lastly, thank you to Senators John Carson and Marc Snyder for your leadership, and Representatives Cecilia Espinoza and Bob Marshal for shepherding the bill through the House.
