About Walk & Bike Month (www.walkandbikemonth.org)
Nearing its 50th year, Walk and Bike Month began as a single day event in 1977. Evolving into a month-long celebration over the decades, Boulder’s Walk and Bike Month is now among the largest in the nation. This year, dozens of events have been planned for June to celebrate Boulder’s nationally recognized bicycling and pedestrian culture. Community Cycles, a local nonprofit that educates and advocates for safe bicycle use, is coordinating events and volunteers during the month.
