Bike to Wherever Day 2022 (San Francisco Bay Area)

This May, Bike Month and “Bike to Wherever Days” (BTWD) once again will roll across the nine counties of the Bay Area, and include the return of Bike to Work Day on May 20.

For the first time in two years, many employees are beginning to return to their offices, small businesses are seeing a rise in customers and clients, and bicycles once again are being used for commuting – as well as exercise, recreation, traveling to school, running errands and more.

As a result, BTWD 2022 – the event’s 28th year – will be a celebration throughout the entire month of May and will be highlighted by Bike to Work Day, which was modified the last two years due to the
pandemic

Bike to Wherever 2022 is underway! Join us for the entire month of May!
Join thousands of people across the Bay Area as they ride their bikes to work, school, run errands, visit friends and more during the month of May! and on May 20, join us for the 28th annual Bay Area 28th Annual Bike to Work Day.

• Pledge to Ride (to win prizes and more)
• Visit your nearest Energizer station to enjoy snacks and get a free canvas tote bag (some counties require you to pledge first to get your bag).
