May is National Bike Month — a time to celebrate all the benefits of bicycling and encourage more people to give it a try. Whether you're biking to work, school, the store, or just for fun, riding a bike is a simple way to stay active, reduce your carbon footprint, and explore your community.

Bike Month is also about promoting safer streets, better bike infrastructure, and the idea that biking should be accessible and enjoyable for everyone. Across the country, communities are hosting group rides, safety workshops, and bike-to-school days to get more wheels turning.

If you're new to cycling, now is the perfect time to start. And if you're a regular rider, invite a friend to join you this month. Every ride makes a difference. Explore events in Toledo and the surrounding area on the TMACOG website.
