One
of the great things about National Bike Month is its flexibility.
The
International Bicycle Fund offers a variety of event
ideas and more than 40 event names to choose from. In June 2000,
cyclists
in British Columbia enjoyed a month of activities ranging
from bike rodeos and rides to mountain bike events and a ground-breaking
ceremony for an important local project. In Western
Australia, the ten-day-long bike week in March of this
year featured bicycling barbecues, a commuter challenge between
local councils, and a variety of fun rides. The Canberra Bike Festival
in the Australian capital has a similar range of events.
