Meet some of our partners and discover what their sponsorship means to them. We hope their words will encourage and inspire you today.
Community Cycles has been a part of Bike to Work Day since it was founded in 2007, and they have worked to grow June into a month-long celebration of cycling. Walk and Bike Month plays a large role in their core mission of cultivating the joy of lifelong, self-sufficient riding for everyone in Boulder.
Their vision: “We’re a community making bicycling a truly sustainable, equitable, and affordable means of everyday transportation; where human-powered transportation is prioritized in fact and not just in words; and where transportation betters all residents’ lives physically, emotionally, and economically.
The City of Boulder is proud to sponsor Walk and Bike Month. We strive to provide a transportation system with a variety of safe, accessible and sustainable travel options that connect people with each other and with the places they want to go. Providing mobility options benefits all people so by supporting active transportation options like walking and biking, we can work together to make our community a better place to live, work and play.
Continual enhancement of our existing multimodal system ranks high on the list of Boulder County’s goals. An excellent multi-modal system is safe, efficient and convenient for people who walk, bicycle and take transit throughout the county. A multimodal system gives everyone transportation choices. Boulder County supports Walk and Bike Month to celebrate transportation options and to encourage those new to biking and walking for mobility to see all the benefits of these modes.
Walk and Bike Month not only gets people on bikes and walking, it is a signature summer event in Boulder. The incredible Bike to Work Day breakfasts are a great thank you to regular riders. Why not walk and ride on over 300 miles of dedicated bikeways? It’s a great opportunity to pause and take stock of your day as well as to enjoy your surroundings. For those with any questions on their transportation options, we are here to help!

Way to Go, a program of the Denver Regional Council of Governments, empowers commuters to reduce traffic congestion and improve air quality by offering information on eco-friendly transportation options. Way to Go helps make the region a better place to live, working closely with employers to develop customized plans to meet their employees’ commute needs. Annually, Way to Go organizes Bike to Work Day and the Go-Tober Challenge, programs designed to encourage commuters to explore different ways to get around. This year’s Bike to Work Day theme is Pedal, Smile, Repeat!
We support Walk & Bike Month because we care about making biking accessible to everyone. While most of our riders own their own bikes, B-cycle allows them to bike more often, in circumstances that they otherwise wouldn’t be able to—like take one way trips on a bike, or connect to public transit. We’re also excited to provide an easy entry point back into cycling for those who want to hop back on a bike after a long period of inactivity, but may not want to commit to buying or maintaining a bike.
