Toll 49: A New Future

The Tyler Bicycle Club, East Texas Triathletes, and the cycling community have entered into a partnership with the NET RMA concerning Toll 49. Our responsibility in this partnership is two-fold: raise money for bike lane striping and signage for Toll 49 and to educate the public on the bicycle laws of Texas and proper riding on roadways. The cyclists of East Texas have a unique opportunity to be leaders in the State of Texas. We can give cyclists a voice statewide. We can be the model for all other cyclists collaborating with the other RMA’s in Texas. The lawmakers in Austin are talking about us and we were even mentioned on the House floor. Our time is now! Please help us by donating to the Toll 49 striping/signage fund and by helping us promote cycling safety. If you wish to contribute, please click the "Donate" button below:
