Look for the recent East of the Hills Map in one of our Supporting Member Bike Shops.

Our map distributor and resident cartographer, Derek Liecty, led the 2-year effort to revise the West of the Hills Map. Even with tremendous volunteer labor contributions, this project still cost us over $59,000. The map was released in 2008, and we continued to make revisions to create a new 2009 map that is now available--with membership--at our Fruitvale Village office and is already being distributed to our Supporting Member Shops.

EBBC maps are "by bicyclists, for bicyclists" and we encourage you to contribute your revisions. Please review the map key and clearly mark suggested changes directly on your map and deliver it to EBBC along with your contact information. We will send you a replacement map.
