Marin's North-South Greenway now reaches the Golden Gate Ferry terminal in Larkspur thanks to a bike bridge that spans Sir Francis Drake Blvd., passing right in front of The New Wheel Larkspur Landing. This is due to the efforts of many visionary local activists and politicians, and the passionate leadership of the Marin County Bike Coalition. They know that bicycle and mass transit infrastructure investments in the 21st century show a documented pattern of success.
The New Wheel is a sponsor of the Marin County Bike Coalition.

Both of us have roots in the San Francisco Bay Area. Brett was born and raised atop a hill in San Francisco. Karen was born in Copenhagen, but moved when she was young to Sausalito, where her family has lived since the 1940's.
We met at UC Berkeley in Robert Reich’s public policy class and we've been together ever since. We’re pretty sure that our compatibility can be chalked up to shared ambition, a desire to go beyond the status quo, and a mutual contrarian streak.
Our passion for electric bikes can be attributed to many things, but the combination of growing up among San Francisco's legendary hills and a lasting desire to do good work for our community top the list.
