Part 1 will cover North Provo between BYU and the Riverwoods. This will be a longer ride to cover as many bike shortcuts as possible. Route maps will be provided, so don't worry if you can't join for the entire duration.

Terrain: mostly paved roads, with some rough pavement and some hard-packed gravel 

Join cyclists around the world for the Ride of Silence, a slow, silent ride honoring cyclists who have been injured or killed on public roads. Participants ride quietly together to raise awareness about the importance of sharing the road and improving safety for people who bike.

Celebrate Bike Month by swapping a car trip for a bike ride. Whether you’re commuting to work, riding to school, or just heading to a local coffee shop, Bike to Work Day encourages people to try cycling for everyday transportation and highlights the benefits of safer, more bike-friendly streets.

During the event participating businesses and organizations host breakfast stations that serve those who bike to work or anywhere. This event is a fantastic way for employers to encourage employee wellness and boost their presence in the community to attract more customers and quality employees.

Curious about starting a bike bus for your neighborhood school? A bike bus is a group of kids riding to school together with adult supervision. It’s fun, safe, and a great way to build community while reducing traffic around schools.

Join us for a short training covering how bike buses work, how to plan a route, recruit families, and organize volunteers.

We’ll meet at Exchange Park where our own bike bus begins, so you can see what a real setup looks like. After the training, anyone who brings a bike can join an optional short demonstration ride along the route.

Parents, caregivers, teachers, and community members are all welcome. Kids are welcome to play at the park or join the ride if they’d like. Bring a bike and helmet if you plan to ride.

BikeWalk Provo’s monthly meetings are for everyone who is interested in making Provo a better place to walk and bike. Monthly meetings feature updates on projects, reports from government officials, group discussions, and opportunities to get involved.

Join our Community Ride on Saturday, April 25 and experience Utah’s growing trail network with friends, family, and fellow riders.
