Bike Everywhere Month in Bellevue 2025
Posted on April 7, 2025Celebrate Bike Everywhere Month with Choose Your Way Bellevue
Bike Everywhere Month, presented by Microsoft, Lime, and Amazon, is a time to support, encourage, and celebrate all things bicycling. Whether commuting to work, running errands, exercising, or simply enjoying the fresh air, May is the perfect time to embrace the freedom and joy of cycling. Originating as “Bike to Work Day” in the 1950s and later evolving into Bike Month, this annual event is championed by the League of American Bicyclists and celebrated nationwide, including local organizations such as Cascade Bicycle Club. Washington is known for its strong biking culture and leading the way in celebrating pedal power, and Bellevue is no exception!
With a mix of events and activities, Bike Everywhere Month offers plenty of opportunities to connect with fellow cyclists, improve your riding skills, and explore new routes. The best way to participate is simple: get on a bike! Whether you’re riding to work, the grocery store, or just around town for fun or exercise, every ride counts.
