Don’t sit out this Bike Month

We’re on the cusp of a month full of bicycle-theme festivities in Winston-Salem.

May is national bike month. What that means depends on the community. Some cities and towns go all out with theme-rides, races, educational events, even perks and prizes for those who ride to work or school. Other places don’t do anything to celebrate.

Thankfully, here in Winston-Salem, we like bicycling, so our calendar is full. There are beginner and kid-friendly rides, overnight bike-packing trips, advocacy nights, UCI races, MTB trail workdays, and more.

HERE is a calendar so you can keep up with all the happenings. You can even print it and share with your friends, family and co-workers (please do!). Many of these events only happen once a year and it’s important for locals to show up.

I hope you will take advantage of Bike Month and all it has to offer you, and the rest of our community. It only comes around, once a year!
