Join the Biking Fun in May and Onwards
MAY IS BIKE MONTH!
This annual month-long event aims to encourage and aid riders to swap their cars for handle bars to boost community and our air quality. The festivities begin as early as April 22 with the Cesar Chavez Elementary School Bike Swap, followed by tons of other events to prepare for this month-long activity. Keep up with it all with the May is Bike Month Calendar and make sure to register yourself or a team to compete.
