May is recognized as National Bike Month, and for the sixth consecutive year The Woodlands will host a number of activities celebrating the event. The Woodlands Township is a supporter of Bike The Woodlands Coalition's efforts to create a better community through bicycling, and the events in May offer a prime opportunity for residents to get involved. There are more than 30 events planned throughout the month of May for riders of all types. Bike The Woodlands Day, a family-friendly event, will be held on Saturday, May 19, 2018, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Northshore Park, 2505 Lake Woodlands Drive. Exhibitors will include local bike shops, a swap meet, a mountain bike skills course, and more. Bike demonstrations and bicycle safety information will also be offered, including a bike rodeo and helmet fitting by Texas Children's Hospital. This event will include live music, a kids zone and local food vendors.
Other activities throughout the month of May include a relaxed ride around The Woodlands, mountain bike rides, a bike-kayak-bike event, a kids' fun ride, workshops and more. Helmets are mandatory for all riding events, and registration is strongly encouraged to save a spot for a chosen activity. Register online for events at www.bikethewoodlands.org.
