The Tampa BayCycle campaign offers fun and educational activities throughout Pinellas and Hillsborough counties. This year's Bike Month events include: bicycle and gear giveaways, group rides, children's safety rodeos, street skills classes, festivals for people of all ages and abilities, and much more.

Bike Month is your chance to discover quiet, safe, beautiful routes for excursions or everyday trips to work, school, or play. Feel the sun on your face and the wind in your hair. Get fit. Save money. Fall in love with your commute.

Distinguish yourself by becoming a Tampa BayCycle Ambassador or one of the 1,001 Friends of Cycling.

Join the growing number of people who experience the pleasure of cycling in the month of March, and every day of the year. Visit the Tampa BayCycle Facebook group page, and share your ideas for Bike Month 2009. Help us make cycling an integral part of the transportation culture in the Tampa Bay area.

Watch for details regarding events and other information on how you can participate. There will be great prizes and group activities again this year.
