Share the Road Bill signed by Governor

The Share the Road Bill was signed into law by Governor Ritter June 3, 2007, at the Elephant Rock Cycling Festival.

The bill (SB 67) authorizes issuance of the new Colorado “Share the Road” license plate to those who pay the appropriate licensing fees plus a one-time donation fee of $25 payable to Bicycle Colorado. A certificate is then issued by Bicycle Colorado, with the donation fee going towards a bicycle education and crash prevention fund.

The bill sponsors, Senator Greg Brophy (R-District 1) and Representative Terrance Carroll (D-Denver), successfully led the bill through two committees and the full House and Senate votes.

  • Tonight the #BicycleColorado team celebrated Stacey, our outgoing Development Director, with a virtual happy hour. Stacey has been an absolute rockstar for BC. We’re sad to see her leave, but thrilled for her as she heads out on a new adventure (hopefully in the #BikeAdvocacy space!) in North Carolina. Please join us in wishing her well!
