1995 Time's Up! introduces its first monthly calendar of free group bike rides and events to raise environmental awareness in fun, positive settings. https://times-up.org/sites/default/files/uploads/images/bike%20clowns/Clowns%20in%20row%20sm%20by%20Kaitlyn%20Tikkun.jpg Time's Up! Bike Clowns clearing the bike lanes of cars - photo by Kaitlyn TikkunThese rides attract cyclists at all skill levels and socioeconomic classes, fostering a sense of community while highlighting the benefits of non-polluting transportation. The number one complaint from cyclists is that they didn’t feel safe on their bicycles. The group rides created a safety bubble and helped build the confidence of new cyclists and inspired them to become everyday commuters. The increase in riders puts more pressure on the city to create a safer infrastructure that, in turn, produces even more riders. In fact, these group bike rides helped to increase cycling in New York City by over 100% from 2000 to late 2007. This was a time when New York City was not supporting cycling in any way with safe infrastructure. The increase in ridership and direct action pushed the city to alter the city’s urban design and appoint a new Department of Transportation Commissioner who implemented bike lanes, auto-free zones and sustainable infrastructure in 2008. Each new bicycle commuter created by our rides saves 2.82 tons of CO2 on average per year by cycling rather than taking a taxi (from carboncalculator.com). Time's Up! rides and events have gained international recognition, have been featured and received several “Best Of” awards in publications such as The New York Times, The New Yorker, Time Out NY, and The Village Voice. Many of our unique rides have been replicated in other cities.
