We are partnering with Month every Friday in May. Come out and bike with the crew for our Friday morning walk/runs.

This is your time to bike the route if you’re not up for walking or running. Don’t feel ashamed for biking with our walkers & runners; most importantly we want you to feel encouraged to get active with the crew.

No bike? No problem! Message Bike & Pedestrian Coordinator Tommy Safranek at [email protected] to borrow one.
