VAMOS is our concept for how cities in America can build a complete bike network for everyone — faster, for less money, and with less conflict than ever before.
The community-created Best Available Network identifies the chill bike network hiding in plain sight. This makes it possible for people ride anywhere — today.
Richmond can have a complete bike network in less than three years.
Within an additional two years, Richmond can upgrade hundreds of point locations to make the network even better.
Within an additional three years, Richmond can add signals and protected bike lanes that straighten the routes.

The goal of the Low-Stress Richmond Bike Map is to identify the "Best Available Network," the network of existing trails, protected bike lanes, quiet streets, sidewalks, and alleys, that make it possible for people of all ages and abilities to ride to any destination today – even if a complete formal bike network doesn't exist.

This map is a crowdsourcing project to tap into local knowledge of how to comfortably get around Richmond on a bike. Download the mobile app to share your favorite routes and help us make a better map.
Occasionally, there are sidewalks where we encourage you to get off your bike, be a pedestrian, and push your bike. Walking is great and it helps us make challenging network connections.
