PHILADELPHIA, PA—The Bicycle Coalition of the Delaware Valley in early May appointed Kevin McQuiston as its executive director. The Coalition's former executive director, Sue McNamara, is leaving to work with her husband's construction firm. McQuiston, an avid cyclist, has worked in the bicycle industry
for more than 20 years, including stints as Vittoria's national sales manager and mechanic for the U.S. Cycling Team. As the Coalition's executive director, he will focus on membership development. He will work closely with the Coalition's board and McNamara to create a strategy that blends advocacy with member services and programs for the cycling public.
