Partnering Organization

BU Bikes is a Newark based business that encourages the enjoyment of cycling in your local community.  BU Bikes envisions an inclusive, diverse and accepting community where people of all ages and backgrounds bicycle to work, to get around, and for fun and for health and where bicycling brings people and neighborhoods together in the Greater Newark Area.

BU bikes encourages participation in group cycling and promotes education, safety, and public awareness of the sport of biking through planned rides and related biking activities. Their goal is to cultivate a community of bicyclists and non-bicyclists who respect each other on the road or trail and support a broad-based coalition promoting bicycling as part of a larger vision of healthy, sustainable, and connected living.

Purpose

To engage more people of all communities, backgrounds and ages to cycle regularly and safely for transportation, fitness, recreation, and daily activities.

What to expect?

Participants will explore the dynamism of bike culture and print shirts to take on a BU bike ride around Newark.
