Go Coast Bike Month 2024
May 1-31, 2024
National Bike Month, promoted by the League of American Bicyclists, has been celebrated in May in communities across the US since 1956! Every year, Go Coast hosts an area-wide bike month that encourages residents of the Wilmington urban area to ride a bike in place of a single occupancy vehicle.
Bike Month aims to celebrate and promote safe and convenient biking as a means of sustainable and equitable transportation, for exercise and health, for building community, and for fun!
*Please note the River to Sea annual bike ride, which generally takes place during May, has been rescheduled to September 7, 2024. See ride details.
