Sponsored by the League of American Bicyclists, National Bike Month is an opportunity to celebrate the unique power of the bicycle and the many reasons we ride. Whether you bike to work or school; to save money or time; to preserve your health or the environment; to explore your community or get to your destination, get involved in Bike Month in your city or state — and help get more people in your community out riding too!

May is also a good month to kick off the National Bike Challenge.  Started in 2009, the Challenge is an exciting health and wellness initiative that encourages people (as individuals, part of a team, or as a business) to bike for transportation and recreation. In 2013, they aim to have 50,000 riders pedaling 20 million miles from May 1, 2013 until September 30, 2013. It is open and free to anyone who lives in the U.S. or works for an organization with U.S. employees.
