| Get in Gear for May is Bike Month |
| Thursday, 24 April 2008 | |
May is Bike Month and Natomas business, residents and students will
jump on those two wheelers and soon, strut their stuff! Join your
neighbors and co-workers in bicycling for work, errands or recreation
this May during the Sacramento region’s annual May is Bike Month
campaign. In addition to the health benefits of bicycling, you can also
pedal to beat rising gas prices, help reduce air pollution and enjoy
the beautiful May weather.The North Natomas Transportation Management Association says that May is Bike Month is for anyone who uses a bike to exercise, run errands or commute to work. No matter how frequently you ride, logging miles at MayIsBikeMonth.com will help the region reach a collective goal of one million miles. And 2008 is the year we’ll reach that high mark, since last year participants logged 926,638 miles! Events will be held throughout the region for the entire month of May, and in North Natomas, several local events are being planned by NNTMA. On Saturday, May 3rd, start off the month and meet a few new folks by joining the group ride to Old Sac and have breakfast on the TMA. May 15th is Bike-to-Work Day with a BikeFest at the State Capitol. In addition to prizes and live music, the Sacramento BikeFest will feature booths by bike shops and bike groups, as well as commute information. The TMA will be hosting a breakfast bike-in along the way. For more information visit the Notrh Natomas TMA website or mayisbikemonth.com |
