Barb has been a leader in biking advocacy for decades. She has been the executive director of Washington Bikes twice, for a combined 13 years, as well as previously working for Cascade Bicycle Club as their education director and promoting bicycling and walking as head of commuter solutions at Seattle Children\u2019s Hospital. Her leadership has led to increased bicycle infrastructure in Washington, better education for all users of the road, and increased communication between bicycle advocates and Washington DOT.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis award comes as a complete surprise to me. I am thrilled and pleased to be recognized by my peers at the national level,\u201d remarked Barb, who also served on the board of directors for the Alliance and was the vice-chair for part of her tenure.<\/p>\n<p>Barb is not resting on her laurels and continues to support growing biking in our state.\u00a0 This summer, she and husband Andy Goulding will help Bicycle Alliance board member John Pope ground truth portions of the future US Bicycle Route 10 in north central and northeastern Washington.
