Oppose the bicycle registration bill

North Carolina House Bill 157, sponsored by Alexander County Rep. Jeffrey Elmore, will require the owner to register for an annual bicycle registration fee shall that will cost $10.

Why is this important?

This bill would discourage healthy habits, discourage commuting alternatives, and put a burden on the underserved populations. In addition, the money collected would not be used for biking infrastructure to offer safe dedicated bike lanes.
