BikeLakeland Releases Logo Under Creative Common Copyright
Today, BikeLakeland released their familiar blue-and-white logo under a Creative Commons copyright. “This means any person or entity may use the logo to promote biking in Lakeland,” said Chuck Welch, BikeLakeland’s Director. “We just request anyone using the logo online to provide a link to BikeLakeland.com”
Welch stated that area bike shops and Governmental entities could use the logo to promote biking in Lakeland. Organizations could affix the logo to bike racks or bicycle-friendly businesses. “Bike Lakeland isn’t just an advocacy organization; it’s a plea, a promise and a paean to a lifestyle choice in our community.”
Welch added that he hoped area businesses and artists would find creative ways to mix the logo into their work, “After all, we have the same goal — advocating for more bikes, more cyclists and the best infrastructure.”
The next time you see the Bike Lakeland logo, we hope it serves as a reminder that there is no better way to see Lakeland than to bike Lakeland.

BikeLakeland’s New Logo
Thanks to the wonderful (and creative) team at Smart Creative, BikeLakeland has a real logo.
Designed by professionals. People you should hire. Smart Creative is not just a name, they’re smart. They asked a few questions, put on their thinking caps, and sent over a logo fast, great and inexpensive*. You can’t get much better than that.
* – OK, they graciously donated their time to help the BikeLakeland cause. But they only have time to donate if companies big and small hire them. Consider this our overwhelming endorsement of their work.
These are the logos they sent over. (I forgot to mention they gave us two for the price of one. Well, actually for the price of none.)
** – We pulled out the BikeLakeland text for our header image. If it isn’t as sweet as the logo, blame us.
