Help us grow bicycling! Take the Urban Expeditions’ Challenge

The Urban Expeditions’ Challenge is as easy as... breathing.
Just
bring a *new rider out to Urban Expeditions, and you’ll get a chance to
win an awesome prize. For each new rider that you bring, you’ll receive
one Urban Expeditions’ Challenge raffle ticket. * A new rider is
someone that is new or fairly new to city bicycling

Why you just gotta accept the Challenge


Getting people out on their bikes to reconnect with city bicycling is
an important step to building a broader support base for
bicycle-friendly legislation

• Urban Expeditions gets people re-engaged with their community and reconnected to the joys of bicycling around town.


It's a fun free event that reminds people that life in the city looks a
lot different when you don't have a car roof over your head.


It’s a ride for everyone. Invite your grandma, your out-of-shape best
friend and your "are-we-there-yet" kid. Urban Expeditions’ gets people
moving towards a cleaner, greener and more joyful city.

Urban Expeditions
is just one way that C.I.C.L.E. is working to grow bicycling by
inviting everyday people to come out and experience the joys (and the
benefits) of city bicycling. Check out our front page or our ride
calendar for the latest Urban Expeditions' ride information. See you
(and a friend) at the next ride!
