Bike Everywhere Month 2025 will run from May 1st-31st and will be open to parents, schools, students and families.
Bike with your child to run an errand
Bike to school with them, or if they are old enough, encourage them to bike by themselves!
Take them on a weekend bike ride to their favorite park
Show them how to properly lock up a bike! Use this helpful resource from Bike Winnipeg
If you are a teacher, bike to school as well to show your students you are participating too!
This year features a KM thermometer/tracker for individuals, families, classrooms and schools. Any participating students can submit how far they make it on the tracker and be entered to win a number of prizes.
We also have an activity kit with a survey to determine how bike-friendly your community is. This is an awesome opportunity to get outside with your kids or students and help them examine their neighborhood through a critical lens!
Finally we have a worksheet which asks students/kids where they love to bike and where they wish they could bike so we can envision a more bike-friendly Winnipeg together and use our voices to guide the future.
This year, we are reviving an exciting program from 2019! The Loan-a-Lock program provides the opportunity for schools to acquire their own high quality U-locks to lend out to students. We provide helpful resources to assist school administrations with this program.
Please note that we do have a limited amount of locks so we will close our request form as soon as we reach our maximum.
This year we have a new prize category for schools! Any school that submits a kilometre tracking sheet will be entered a very special educational prize.
Other awesome prizes that you can be entered to win include:
On May 24th, Green Action Centre will host and in person event to celebrate Bike Everywhere Month. More details to come!
