2024 Summer Appeal
Summer is here!
We're so excited to spend the long, warm days recreating in our beautiful green state. With your help, we want to make it safer for all those that walk, bike, and roll in all corners of Vermont.
This summer, when you give a gift to Local Motion, know that your support has helped us pass traffic regulations to support this goal. We want to continue to pass more new laws to make biking safer and easier at intersections, bolster funding for infrastructure, and more.
When you give to Local Motion, you help ensure that we can continue to work with communities all around Vermont and at the statehouse to make it safe, accessible, and fun for everyone to bike, walk, and roll in Vermont.
During our Summer Appeal, you can get 3 chances for the VBT Trip Raffle for each $50 donation. See below for trip details.
Thanks to VBT for their donation of this exciting Tuscan vacation!

Tour Description: This original cycling tour of southern Tuscany has had its share of copycats. We’re flattered—but don’t be fooled; reproductions are never authentic as the original. With 20 years of experience cycling the Tuscan coast, we know the best seaside routes, award-winning vineyards, and masserias that reflect the Maremma’s unique character. Our local Tuscan trip leaders will take you to secluded swimming coves—including a delightful beach on Giglio Island where you can cool off after an afternoon’s guided walking tour. Pedal the shores of the Orbetello lagoon, learn to prepare Tuscan cantucci during a cooking class, and enjoy a tasting of Tuscany’s “liquid gold” at a local olive oil mill. This incredible cycling vacation has it all. Learn more information about the tour here.
