Campaign: Pedal Power! May is National Bike Month

Taiga Company Blog

April showers bring May flowers and…National Bike Month!  May is recognized as National Bike Month and as sustainability consultants, we couldn't be happier!  Cycling is part of a sustainable lifestyle, is alternative transportation, helps the environment, and also raises eco awareness.   It seems that most people think of bikes as recreation but in our sustainability consulting with business and individuals, we encourage employers and workers to consider cycling as alternative transportation as well as part of a sustainable business strategy.  Cycling to work is an easy way to integrate sustainability concepts into the workplace.

 Here’s how you can participate in National Bike Month.  Begin by marking your calendar:

  • Bike-to-Work Week 2010 from May 17-21

  • Bike-to-Work Day on Friday, May 21.
