A community leader involved with numerous causes and groups across Long Beach, Bixby was, perhaps, most memorably known as a cycling advocate involved in everything from creating the city’s Bicycle Master Plan, helping start the Long Beach Bike Festival, and championing the city’s national reputation as a bike-friendly city.

On March 16, 2011, Bixby and four others Thomas Dean, Jeffrey Berger, Bruce Krall and Kenneth Cruz perished aboard a private plane that crashed shortly after takeoff at Long Beach Airport. A sixth passenger, Mike Jensen, Bixby’s colleague, survived with serious injuries.
