Bike Month Includes Give To Lincoln Day. Among the many worthy causes vying for your attention this coming Thursday the 26th is Bicyclincoln. Last year we used donations to create intersection art near Everett Elementary to improve pedestrian and cyclist safety. Our stated mission is: To provide information and a unified voice for bicycle advocacy in an effort to make cycling in Lincoln more friendly, safe, easy, accepted, and “so that more people bike and bike more often.”

You, the bicyclists of Lincoln, are why we exist. Lend your voice while doing what we all love to do- ride our bikes. We’ll soon have numbers as to how many participated in Bike To Work Week, and it’s various activities, but the month isn’t over yet and Lincoln ranks in the top ten in each of the six categories on the bike Challenge leaderboard. Check it out.
Remember the bikeleague‘s bingo? How many can you check now?
