Bike To Work Day 2016

National Bike Month includes an ever-expanding diversity of events in communities nationwide, but the biggest day of the month is Bike to Work Day. Bike to Work Day is on Friday, May 20 this year.
Fort Worth will observe Bike to Work Day with a ride led by Mayor Betsy Price at 7:45 a.m. leaving from the intersection of Magnolia and Lipscomb ending at Intermodal Transportation Center.
 
Fort Worth Bike Sharing will offer half-off 24-hr memberships for those who don’t have a bike of their own ($4 instead of $8). Just use the promo code 052016 to redeem the discount. Remember to dock the bike every 30 minutes or usage fees will apply.
 
If you’re ready to ditch the drive for a day, take the pledge to bike to work as part of an employer team or as an individual.
 
Employers are encouraged to create routes for their employees and have a ride leader. If you are interested in starting a ride for your company, contact Bike Friendly Fort Worth for help choosing the best route. There will also be some suggested routes at www.fortworthtexas.gov/biketowork for individuals who would like to ride to work independently.
Volunteers from FitWorth, Blue Zones and Bike Friendly Fort Worth will provide energizer stations with refreshments and ride leaders at the Intermodal Transportation Center, Magnolia and Lipscomb intersection and at UNT Health Science Center during the morning commute.
