Colorado Bike Month
June is Bike Month
Colorado is a premier bicycling state. To celebrate bicycling for transportation, fun and health, Colorado has designated each June as Bike Month. At the same time, Colorado joins a nationwide effort to encourage cycling novices and enthusiasts to experience the fun and freedom of safely riding a bike to work, school, errands and recreation.
Colorado also celebrates Bike to Work Day during the month of June. In 2023, Bike to Work Day will be Wednesday, June 28. On Bike to Work Day, employees leave their cars at home and enjoy bicycling to work, helping them save money on their commutes, improve their health and lower stress levels — all while reducing traffic congestion and improving air quality. The number of Bike to Work Day participants has risen steadily since 1995, and due to the popularity of bicycling in Colorado that trend is expected to continue this year.
