GMTMA is also sponsoring the following Bike Month events:
Swap A Ride: For those of you who don’t or can’t bike to work, replace as many car trips as possible with bike trips and enter to win prizes!
Employer Bike Challenge: Form a group of fellow employees to participate in Bike to Work Week. Enjoy the camaraderie and the great outdoors with co-workers by commuting to and from work together, compete with other employer teams, AND get a chance to win our EMPLOYER WHEELS award.
Visions of Bicycling: To celebrate Bike Month and the beauty of bicycling, GMTMA holds a photo contest (last year’s winner shown above). Bike to Work Week participants are welcome to submit their photographs.
And for those of you who want to express the beauty of bicycling in words, check out the Bike Commuter Journal series on our blog, and email jibara@gmtma.org if you’d like to share your bike commuting experiences. You could be featured on our blog.
And of course, GMTMA offers information and safety tips for bicyclists and pedestrians of all ages and can provide onsite bike safety and pedestrian education programs for schools and camp programs, businesses, as well as seniors. GMTMA can also help your community do a walkability audit and identify concerns for pedestrians related to the safety, access, comfort and convenience of the walking environment. An audit can also help identify potential solutions such as engineering treatments, policy changes or education and enforcement.
Remember to log in your miles at the end of the week and win great prizes from these generous sponsors:
Halters Cycles, Hart’s Cyclery, Knapps Cyclery, Kopp’s Cycle, McCaffrey’s Supermarket, REI Princeton , St. Lawrence Rehab Center, Sourland Cycles, Whole Earth Center
