Celebrate Bike Month: Pedal, Participate and Win!

May 02, 2025

May is National Bike Month—and there's no better time to grab your helmet, hit the pedals, and celebrate the power of two wheels! We're rolling out exciting ways to get involved this summer, whether you're commuting, catching a game, or just enjoying the ride.

Catch the Richmond Flying Squirrels—and a Chance to Explore More
Heading to a Richmond Flying Squirrels game this summer? Ride your bike to the game and park at the designated bike rack. While you’re there, scan the QR code displayed at the rack to be taken directly to our biking webpage for helpful resources, tips, and more ways to make biking part of your routine. And don’t forget to snap a photo at the bike rack and tag Team RideFinders on social media—we’d love to share your ride!

Bike to Work, Win Big
Commuters who swap four wheels for two can score big! In partnership with the Virginia Department of Rail and Public Transportation, during Bike Month, simply log your bike-to-work trips using the ConnectingVA app—and you’ll be automatically entered into a Bike to Work Prize Drawing. Two lucky participants will be randomly selected to win gift cards—one for $500 and another for $250. Eligible entries include any bike ride that’s part of your commute to and from work. It’s our way of celebrating those who are choosing cleaner, greener ways to get to work—plus, it helps highlight biking as a practical, everyday transportation option.

More Ways to Ride
Whether you're commuting to work, exploring your neighborhood, or just cruising for fun, every mile makes a difference. This Bike Month, consider:
Biking to work, school, or errands
Logging your trips in the ConnectingVA app
Sharing your biking photos with us on social media
Encouraging friends and coworkers to join the challenge

Bike Month is about more than just riding—it's about building a healthier, more sustainable community together. So let’s roll into summer with purpose and pedal power!
