Bike to Work Week


Falls Area Bicyclists celebrates National Bike To Work Week

You CAN do it! Discover the joy and practicality of bicycling! Join millions of bicyclists around the world riding their bikes to work. 40% of all trips in the U.S. are less than two miles, making bicycling a feasible and fun way to get to work. How far is your commute?  Falls Area Bicyclists has been busy working with local businesses to create something truly special for Bike To Work Week this year.  There are opportunities to win prizes, a trophy, and enjoy great discounts and freebies throughout the week.  We cap off the week on Bike To Work Day with a big party on Friday, May 20th.  Let's get to it!

Win Prizes!

There are four businesses participating in this year's raffle prize drawing.  
Each of the 4 locations has a FAB water bottle and tickets. 
All you have to do is ride to the sponsor's business during Bike to Work Week and print your name LEGIBLY on a ticket and put it in the bottle. 
You MUST ride a bicycle to the sponsor to put your name in. 
You can submit one entry per day per sponsor. If you want to, you are welcome to ride to each of the raffle sponsors each day and enter at each sponsor. 
Bottles will be picked up at noon on May 20th and no more entries will be taken after that. 
We will draw a single ticket from each bottle at the wrap up party. One person could possibly win all 4 prizes if they register at each sponsor. You must be present to win at the wrap up party at The Bakery on Friday, May 20th at 5:00PM. Drawing to held at 7PM.
