Purdue Federal Credit Union named a Bronze Bicycle Friendly Business

WEST LAFAYETTE, IN (October 22, 2024) — The League of American Bicyclists recently recognized Purdue Federal Credit Union with a Bronze Bicycle Friendly Business (BFB) award, earning it a place alongside more than 1,300 businesses across the country contributing to the movement to build a more Bicycle Friendly America for everyone.

We’re thrilled to recognize this round of new and renewing Bicycle Friendly Businesses that are not just supporting cycling but are actively weaving it into the fabric of their communities,” said Bill Nesper, executive director of the League of American Bicyclists. “When businesses invest in better biking, they invest in people—employees, customers, and community members alike. Purdue Federal is a shining example of how businesses can lead by example, making biking more accessible and enjoyable for everyone.”

Purdue Federal is lucky to have infrastructure that allows employees to make the choice to bike safely to and from work. Whether employees use bicycle lanes, sidewalks, or trails that are conveniently located throughout the area, biking to work at Purdue Federal has never been easier. In addition, as part of continuing wellness efforts, Purdue Federal has competitions and giveaways throughout the year that continue to encourage employees to bike to work when they can.
