BALTIMORE, MD (Monday, April 3, 2023) – Registration for this year’s 26^th annual Bike to Work Week, which will run May 15-21, 2023, is now open at BikeToWorkMD.com. Riders of all levels are invited to register for the chance to claim free t-shirts and other prizes.

Baltimore Metropolitan Council works with local partners around the region to promote the benefits of biking, raise bike safety awareness and connect cyclists across the region through annual Bike to Work Central Maryland festivities. Last year’s 25^th annual program included almost 1,800 registrants, a major rebound toward pre-pandemic participation. Let’s keep the momentum rolling!

This year’s program will include Pit Stops in Annapolis, Arbutus, Baltimore City, Bel Air, Catonsville, Columbia, Towson and Westminster featuring refreshments, gear, maintenance and other essentials for bike beginners, bike experts and everyone in between. Free t-shirts will be available to registrants at over 20 pick-up locations throughout the region (supply limited).

In 2023, we’re not just biking to work. Consider biking anywhere – school, the store, your neighborhood library or park. Everyone is welcome to join the Bike to Work festivities, especially if you haven’t biked in a while. For your health, for your wallet and for clean air, bike there.

Follow @Bike2WorkMD on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for updates, and tag your biking pics and clips #BTWD2023 to help spread the word! Plus, tell your family, friends and co-workers so they can claim a free t-shirt and potentially other prizes!
