May is Bike Month!


The weather is getting warmer, the pollen is in the air and the road is looking mighty fine...you know what that means?


National Bike Month is starting soon and that means one thing here at I Bike Fresno: the Million Mile Challenge. Every year we challenge the Greater Fresno area to ride a collective million miles in the month of May. Here's how it works:
  • Go to ibikefresno.org
  • Pledge your miles. Think about what kind of riding you'd like to do this month. Plug in your pledged miles and start thinking about where your first ride will take you!
  • Ride your bike.
  • When you get back from your awesome bike ride, login to ibikefresno.org and log your miles into the Million Mile Challenge Dashboard. From there you'll be able to team up with up to four friends to ride and keep each other motivated during the month of May.
  • If you're feeling really inspired head over to bike2workfresno.org and see how you can take part in the Kaiser Permanente Bike To Work Day Corporate Challenge. It's an event that's just as fun as the name is long!
Plus, with tons of events in May and our 31 Days of Prizes giveaway, you're sure to be motivated to ride everyday in May!

So get on your bike and ride all over this town. We want you riding to the store, to work, to get ice cream with the kids. We want you riding for fitness, recreation or to save a little money on gas. We want you on two wheels, with the wind in your hair remembering how great it is to just...ride.

Because we know if you get out on that bike, you'll remember the mantra we've been shouting from River Park to Downtown for the past three years: "Biking = Joy."
