Celebrate Bike Month in Durham Region
The Region of Durham, in partnership with area municipalities and community partners, invites you to celebrate Bike Month, from June 1 to 30. Bike Month is an annual month-long celebration of cycling that brings families, employers, commuters and community organizations together at different events across the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA). Residents and staff of Durham Region are invited to participate in fun and educational cycling activities across the region including the Bike Month Pledge, trip logging and Bike Month Bingo!
