Open Call for Events

Hey friends!

Its that time of year again and BikeFest! is about to be upon us.  This years Fest will be August 14th to the 23rd. We have some new and special events coming up this year as well as some old classics.  We’re excited to ask you, Pittsburgh’s cycling community, to get involved!  Every year we have a variety of fun events on the calendar, from the ACA criteriums to local group rides led by different groups like Team Caffeine or the Major Taylor Cycling Club to rides led by individuals like the ride to the Pirates game last year.

We would love for you to add to our calendar this year!  You can organize a ride, an art show, a music show, a race, or anything that you think might be a fun event that would fit with our mission.  If you don’t think you would have the time to organize on your own, still send us your ideas and we can try to pair you up with someone who has a similar goal.  Past BikeFest! calendars have some good ideas and you can find them on our page http://www.bike-pgh.org/events/bikefest/.  There is always a need for volunteers too, so if you’d like to volunteer, just let us know how you would like to help.

BikeFest! wouldn’t be possible without the amazing calendar put together by you, our cycling supportive community!  If you have any ideas or any questions, please e-mail bikefest@bike-pgh.org.  Please have your event submissions in no later than August 1st! I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

Best,
