Go By Bike Week May 13-19 and Ride with Leaders May 17
by Jeff Roberts on Apr, 16 2019
RVTD sponsors Go By Bike Week to celebrate and promote biking as a healthy, affordable, and fun mode of transportation. We hope you will join us in celebrating Go By Bike Week. You can participate by simply taking the pledge to bike more and drive less. Join us for one of our community events, participate in our Bike Month Bingo, and share your photos on social media for chances to win prizes!
One of the community events is Ride With Leaders – Join local transportation and policy leaders on the annual Ride With Leaders bike ride on Friday, May 17, 2019. Starting at Common Block at 3 pm, the group ride will feature a relaxed 11-mile tour of city and county roads in the Medford area. Hosted by Jackson County Bicycle Committee and led at a mellow pace, there will be a few pauses along the way to demonstrate existing street-level bicycle facilities and access to the Bear Creek Greenway. A route detour for those riders who prefer a shorter tour will also be included. The tour culminates at Common Block around 5 pm where participants can socialize over food and refreshments. Riders should practice safe and courteous riding and comply with traffic laws. Bring your own bike and helmet.
