The Missouri Bicycle and Pedestrian Federation is a statewide, not-for-profit, membership organization that advocates advancement of bicycle and pedestrian access, safety and education in Missouri. It was founded by Caryn Giarratano (the first Chair) and Mike Hoeferkamp (the first Treasurer) in 1993, and incorporated in the state of Missouri on November 17, 1994.

The Federation is a member-driven organization and we reach out to our membership regularly for feedback and guidance through our web page and social media, via email, through polls and surveys, through meetings and events in different parts of the state, and through personal contact.
