Do you bike in Seattle — or want to? Join Cascade Bike Club for Town Hall Seattle’s 2nd annual Bike Month Bash.
Seattle’s bike network and transit connections are expanding as the city prepares for the FIFA World Cup and a flood of visitors this summer. But gaps remain, and more work is needed to make people of all abilities feel safe biking in our city. There are also many opportunities to support better biking in Seattle, such as the Pedaling Relief Project that rescues and delivers food on behalf of multiple food banks. Bring your enthusiasm and questions for our panel of speakers representing Cascade Bicycle Club, the Seattle Streets Alliance, and the Seattle Bike Blog. Learn about opportunities to push progress and participate in a Summer of Seattle Cycling!
Bike parking will be provided.
