June is Walk and Bike Month!
 

June is one of our favorite months of the year here at Boulder B-cycle, and for good reason. It's a month to celebrate the whirr of the pedals and the pitter-patter of feet on the pavement. We're proud to announce that we're one of the sponsors of the 2014 Walk & Bike Month, now in its 38th year. Walk & Bike Month is a diverse celebration of more than 75 bicycle and pedestrian activities throughout June. More than 7,000 people are expected to participate in Bike to Work Day on Wednesday, June 25. Read on for more details on Walk and Bike Month and everything else we've got going on this June!

 

-The Boulder B-cycle Team

Bike to Work Day is Wednesday 6/25

Ride FREE courtesy of Noosa Yoghurt!

 
                   
 
This year, we're excited to announce our first Bike to Work Day Sponsor! Thanks to Noosa Yoghurt, all 24-hour passes purchased at kiosks on Bike to Work Day will be free! If you or someone you know has never had the chance to try bike sharing before, this is a great opportunity! Usage fees still apply to all trips over 30 minutes, so remember to keep each ride short.

Join us on our Bike to Work Day ride

 

 

Register for Bike to Work day today at WalkAndBikeMonth.org! The Boulder B-cycle team will continue our tradition of staffing our mobile breakfast station: The B.E.A.S.T. (B-cycle electric-assist service trailer). We'll have goodies from Noosa Yoghurt, Clif Bar and White Wave to hand out all morning.

Pedaling for Change with Venus de Miles

$10 off through June 15th!

 

 

 

Venus de Miles is many things; Colorado's first all-women's road ride, a celebration of sisterhood, support for Greenhouse Scholars, and crazy fun - but one thing it's not is a race. Three course options (33, 53 and 100 mile-routes) welcome all ability levels, while the post-ride festival features delicious food & drink, spa services, music and lots of fun!  
When you ride Venus de Miles, you're supporting Greenhouse Scholars, an education non-profit supporting Colorado's most promising and deserving college students.  SAVE $10 through June 15th on your Venus de Miles registration at colorado.venusdemiles.com using promo code Bcycle   

 

Sponsor Spotlight: 

Boulder Convention & Visitors' Bureau

 

  

 

This month, we'd like to recognize the Boulder Convention and Visitors' Bureau for their ongoing contributions to Boulder B-cycle! The CVB has been a financial supporter of Boulder B-cycle since our launch in 2011, and have been invaluable in promoting bike sharing as a viable transportation option for the many people who visit Boulder each year.

 

Thanks for your support, CVB!

June Ridership Contest!

 

    

 

For our June ridership contest, we're teaming up with Boulder-based Wide-Eyez to offer a unique prize: our custom Boulder B-cycle Nutcase helmets equipped with Wide-Eyez retractable all-weather bike shields. Here's how it works: each ride taken from Monday, 6/23 through Sunday, 6/29 gets you one entry into a drawing for this month's prize. Hop a B-cycle and get some cool gear for your dome!
