The organization has been working since 1972 to support biking rights in the Philadelphia region, and has worked in recent years to create bike lanes on busy streets like Fairmount Avenue and educate residents on proper biking practices. Their mission, according to their website, is promoting a lifestyle:
The Bicycle Coalition promotes cycling advocacy, healthy living and healthy transportation; it promotes a way of life, a way of bringing people together for a greater purpose.

Barwin's biking, efforts in the community and sense of culture have been well documented. He's recently restructured his contract, so expect to see him riding the city's streets for a few years to come. Unless the weather's bad, in which case you can catch him on the train:
