Bike to Work Day in Portland with Free Events

It's National Bike to Work Day Friday, May 18. Portland has some special free activities to celebrate.

"Celebrate Bike-to-Work Day Friday, May 18 at two free events presented through a partnership of the Bicycle Coalition of Maine, the cities of Portland and South Portland, Healthy Portland, Eastern Trail Alliance and East Coast Greenway Alliance.

In the morning, bicycle commuters can stop by Monument Square in downtown Portland from 6:30 to 9am for coffee, juice and snacks. Jim Tasse, our Education Director, will be on sit to offer mechanical support and safe bicycle commuting tips.

After work, come over to Bug Light Park in South Portland from 4-5pm for a slice of pizza, other snacks, giveaways, and information on healthy living and commuting. To get to the event, you can enjoy a free water taxi shuttle from the Casco Bay Ferry Terminal in Portland to the Bug Light Boat Launch from 3:45 to 5:15 PM or enjoy a ride or walk along the East Coast Green Way or city streets."
