Let's Bike Our Way Out of This Thing!
With everything that’s been happening, we want to give you something healthy, positive, and fun.
This July is Santa Cruz Bike Month and we’re inviting you, your family, friends and coworkers to set yourselves a goal for how much biking you want to enjoy.
You can have several goals at once:
Your company, your bike club, and/or your group of friends, can also set a goal for how much biking you want to do collectively.
This is a great way to connect with your co-workers and friends, build some camaraderie and community, and support each other in achieving your goals.

The National Bike Challenge
Santa Cruz Bike Month takes place during the 2020 National Bike Challenge (NBC). The NBC, which runs from May through September, is a nationwide event that unites thousands of new and existing bicyclists across the country in a friendly campaign designed to celebrate and encourage biking.
We want bike riders of all flavors to show their support for a bike-friendly USA and join the NBC . Let's create a happier, healthier world and get more people riding and smiling!
Why join Love to Ride?
We know that riding a bike has tremendous benefits for individuals, workplaces and communities. So we provide the tools and support to help you and your friends, coworkers, and family to start riding, or to ride more often, and experience the joys and benefits of riding firsthand.
Love to Ride offers a single platform where you can keep track of your riding, find answers and resources to help you ride more confidently, win prizes for riding, and to encourage your friends and coworkers to ride (and win prizes for that too).
