What’s In it For me?
Feel good
Bikes + spring weather + quiet streets = exploring your neighbourhood at a safe distance from others.
There are also prizes, which always feel good 🙂
Learn better
Homeschooling can be tough. With outdoor activity and fresh air, kids can focus when they need to be working indoors.
Lighten your impact
Now is the perfect time to leave the car at home more often, reducing emissions and air pollution!
Activity Kit
What’s in the activity kit?
A set of activities to learn about transportation, experience the joy of riding bikes, and get outside to explore your neighbourhood. Learn new skills and have fun! You can do a section at a time, or mix and match! Do one, do some, or do them all.
The activities are in 5 categories: creative design, mapping, skill building, know your bike, and share your ride.
Here’s a peek at one of our activities:
Street ReDesign: Explore streets and urban design
Imagine what your street could look like if we used our street space in a different way!

How will I get the activities?
Activities will be emailed to everyone registered for Bike Everywhere Month 2021, register here: https://forms.gle/qd6p64rFWKgfMGYd8
We don’t all have bikes. Can we participate?
Everyone is welcome to register! You don’t have to have a bike. Many of the activities will work well on scooters, skateboards, or even running!
We’re big fans of anything that gets kids moving in the community. (Just make sure to respect 2 metres of physical distance when outdoors).
