We are celebrating National Bike Month and Kansas Bike Month during the month of May 2023.
May is National Bike Month, promoted by the League of American Bicyclists and celebrated in communities from coast to coast. Established in 1956, National Bike Month is a chance to showcase the many benefits of bicycling — and encourage more folks to give biking a try.

There are lots of ways to participate in National Bike Month and Kansas Bike Month, locally, regionally, and nationally. Here are some dates in May to celebrate.
May 3rd - National Bike to School Day. The 12th annual National Bike & Roll to School Day is May 3, 2023. Whether addressing the need to make routes to school safer for active trips or encouraging children to be more active, these events can be powerful tools to inspire lasting change. Of course, they are also fun! Check out events in Kansas here: https://www.walkbiketoschool.o...
May 7th - National Ride a Bike Day. More people riding bikes is a simple solution to reducing carbon emissions from transportation. Start by thinking of one car trip you can replace with a bike trip on National Ride a Bike Day! Share on social media with #BikeDay
May 12th - In celebration of Bike month, join our community for Walk or Roll to school day!
May 19th - National Bike to Work Day. 40% of all trips in the U.S. are less than two miles, making bicycling a feasible and fun way to get around. This day aims to incentivize us to switch our regular commute with bikes, and we’re very thankful for it! Another key element to this celebration is the emphasis on safety awareness for cyclists and other commuters.
