It’s CycleMAYnia Time: Visit the EZ Bike Pop-Up onSaturday, May 8th at Goleta City Hall
Experience the joys of biking during the whole month of May, as we celebrate the 12th annual CycleMAYnia Bike Month on the South Coast. This year’s activities include both online presentations and in-person physically-distanced bike rides and small outdoor group activities. Community members can join a Bike to Nature Ride or demo electric bikes at the EZ-Bike Pop-Up, hosted by the City of Goleta and EZ Bike Project on Saturday, May 8. Other activities throughout the month include Taco Tuesday e-bike demos, City Cycling Skills online class, an outdoor bike-in movie, and a Mother’s Day bike ride. Go to CycleMAYnia.org for a full listing of the Bike Month activities, or click here for a flyer with all of the fun activities.
The EZ Bike Project, a new electric bicycle (e-bike) demo program operated by SBCAG Traffic Solutions, offers a wide range of free e-bike demos of various models to local residents and commuters as a measure to reduce traffic and air pollution in Santa Barbara County. During May, Goleta residents can test ride these bikes on Saturday May 8 at Goleta City Hall (130 Cremona Drive, Suite B) or in downtown Santa Barbara on a “Taco Tuesday” demo day. Resuming in June, you can borrow an e-bike over the weekend to ride around your neighborhood, take it to work, the market or any other errands, and even to the beach! Those interested in participating in an EZ-Bike event or reserving an e-bike must either live or work in Santa Barbara County and can visit www.EZBike.org to sign-up.
