It’s free, it’s energizing, and there are plenty of chances to win fantastic prizes along the way.

Want to boost your odds? Invite your friends and coworkers to join you. The more your community rides, the more fun (and rewarding) it becomes.

And the benefits go far beyond prizes. Riding a bike:

  • Boosts your physical and mental wellbeing
  • Cuts down on transportation costs
  • Reduces your carbon footprint

Sign up today, spread the bike love, and help make this the most exciting Bike Fest yet.
