Here are a few simple suggestions to help you promote Bike to Work Day. In your messaging to coworkers, try to answer a few of the basic questions they might have about biking to work, such as:
  • The location of shower facilities.
  • Tips for refreshing after the morning ride.
  • Locating a safe bicycle route on MyWayToGo.org or Ride the City.
  • Breakfast station locations on the way to work and nearby water stations or bike parties on the way home. Encourage participants to enter their origin and destination information on our station locator map.
  • Tips on safe bike riding and tips for new riders.

T-shirts: The deadline for T-shirts orders is coming up. To receive shipped orders by June 21, we recommend coordinators place Boulder T-shirt orders by June 10 and regional T-shirt orders by June 13.

Thank you and please let us know if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

The Bike to Work Day team
