May 22, 2012 Dear Larry:
For the past 23 years Bike Month has been organized and delivered by the City of Toronto with growing participation by Toronto's many cycling and community groups. Bike Month has evolved from a 1998 Bike to Work Day event to become the largest event of its kind in Canada. As the city expanded through amalgamation, so did the event’s scope and focus. Last year 50 groups including various businesses, community groups, organizations and individuals, hosted over 100 bike events. We’re excited to announce that over the next three years Bike Month will transition from a City of Toronto program to a community-based program led by Cycle Toronto (formerly the Toronto Cyclists Union).
Starting May 28th, join us for an incredible suite of Bike Month events happening across Toronto!
Featuring more than 100 events across the city that promote all aspects of cycling, Bike Month 2012 offers something for everyone. From rides and festivals, to free guided tours by bike, to art shows and film screenings, Bike Month 2012 is a great way to celebrate cycling in Toronto. For a full list of events, please visit the Bike Month Calendar on our website. If you can’t make many events or are having trouble choosing, below are six great events happening in June that you won’t want to miss! And don’t forget to take the Bike to Work Day pledge, brought to you by SmartCommute!
