BEST is a non-profit charitable organization with a long history of promoting sustainable transportation.

BEST has been promoting sustainable transportation in the Lower Mainland of BC since 1991. Formed by a group of dedicated cyclists, BEST opened Vancouver’s first do-it-yourself bike store (Our Community Bikes) and coordinated Ride for the Environment events during National Environment Week, when bicycling was less common as a transportation mode.

In 1994 BEST shifted its mandate to include and promote all forms of sustainable transportation. We then began organizing the BC chapter of Commuter Challenge, a national one-week program in which participants commute sustainably for a chance to win great prizes. We converted our Bike Week to Bike Month.
