National Bike Month

May is being observed as National Bike Month. Sponsored by the National Bike League, National Bike Month is designed to be an opportunity to celebrate the “unique power of the bicycle” and the variety of reasons people ride (whether one bikes to work or school) – including to save money or time, to preserve one’s health or the environment, to explore one’s community, or to get to one’s destination.

As part of National Bike Month, this week (15-19 May) is being observed as Bike to Work Week, and Friday, 19 May, is being observed as Bike to Work Day.
