B2W Day Convoy Leaders
Each May, the Baltimore Metropolitan Council hosts Bike-to-Work Day. In 2010, the event will take place on Friday, May 21st. As part of this event, seasoned commuters lead convoys of bike commuters along preferred routes. It’s a great way to learn more about route planning and bicycle safety, while getting to meet others who enjoy biking to work.
To volunteer as a Convoy Leader for Bike-to-Work Day 2010, email biketowork@baltometro.org.
To participate in a convoy, please contact one of the leaders below. If you don't see a convoy in your area, check back for updates as we will add new routes and leaders as they sign-up!
You can also stay up-to-date B2W Day and other bicycle related news and events by joining us on Facebook or registering for our Bike Ped Beacon e-newsletter.
