Remembering Ed
Ed McLaughlin founded Chico Velo and was the organization's first Executive Director. He was an advocate and changemaker for early bicycle infrastructure and events in Chico and Northern California for many years. We work in honor of his legacy to encourage more people to experience the joy and benefits of bicycling.
