Defending your interests
Fietsersbond campaigns for safer cycling and for raising the number of cyclists. We defend the interests of cyclists in Flemish and Brussels communes. Fietsersbond is a not for profit organisation (VZW) with a general secretariat in Antwerp and an office in Brussels.
Local activities
Fietsersbond has over 50 local sections where volunteers lobby and organise events to make their commune more cycle-friendly.
Membership organisation
Fietsersbond is a membership organisation, with over 7,000 memberships covering more than 23,500 cyclists. All these members together form Fietsersbond and give the organisation a strong voice in political decision making. Fietsersbond members enjoy a couple of unique advantages:
- legal assistance insurance (very useful in case of accidents)
- the quarterly Fietsersbond newsletter, plus e-mail newsletters
- discounts at more than 130 bike shops and several cyclists' magazines
- discount on the Cambio car-sharing subscription
- discounts at VOS Travel
- ...
Results
Over the past years, Fietsersbond has achieved a lot: more, better and safer bike paths, better bike rack infrastructure at railway stations and in shopping areas, more '30 km per hour' zones in towns and villages, harmonized standards for bike infrastructure, adaptations in mobility plans to take account of sustainable transport, a tax-free compensation for people commuting by bike, etc.
Even so, plenty of problems and bottlenecks for cyclists remain - also near you. Fietsersbond will therefore continue to campaign for efficient solutions. We need more members, in order to have even more weight. Make your voice heard: join Fietsersbond!
