From the people you meet to the places you discover, bikes connect us.

ICYMI, May is National Bike Month. Established in 1956 by the League of American Bicyclists, National Bike Month is a great chance to get back on your bike and experience the joy of cycling.

But why cycle alone? Take the opportunity to experience bikes in our community, whether you’re:

  • On a group ride
  • Leading your kids’ biking school bus
  • Or simply waving to your neighbors as you roll by

Explore the Mid-America Regional Council’s Bike Month page for local resources, such as the Regional Trails & Bikeways Map, to use this month — and beyond. Want to join a ride? Bookmark the Bike Month calendar, which features events like the Bikes Connect Us community ride happening at 10 a.m., Saturday, May 25, at Concourse Park (200 Benton Blvd.).

Have a spoke-tacular time, KC.
