Cycling Advocacy is Important
S.W.F.B.U.D. Alliance
SWFBUD (South West Florida Bicycle United Dealers) is a Tampa Bay bicycle advocacy alliance of 12 bicycle store dealers and three lawyers who are committed to raising the profile of bicycling in the Tampa Bay area, getting more people on bicycles and drawing more public resources for bicycling.

Bicycle Outfitters is one of the original member shops that formed SWFBUD. We strongly support the goal of greater cycling access and awareness here in Florida. We are proud to work with our SWFBUD partners, and we really appreciate Alan Snel's hard work for our unique advocacy alliance.
BRAINy Award 2009
In mid April 2009 SWFBUD was awarded the Bicycle Retailer and Industry News BRAINy Award for bicycle advocacy. Chosen from more than 4,000 bicycle retailers across the country, SWFBUD is the first coalition of bike shops to win the award.
Congratulations to director Alan Snel and all of our S.W.F.B.U.D partners.
