David Tucker (he/him, Bozeman, Montana) has been advocating for bike access since moving west from New York City in 2013. He served on the board of directors for the Southwest Montana Mountain Bike Association and still volunteers with the Bozeman chapter, The Dirt Concern. Currently, David continues pursuing his passion for bike access as a board member at the Bozeman Bike Kitchen, a local co-op that refurbishes donated bikes, sells them at more affordable prices, and provides shop time to community members looking to improve their maintenance skills. David believes that a bike is the gateway to a better life through improved mental and physical health, community building, adventure and an enhanced appreciation for the natural world and our role in it.
