Even though it’s only April, Community Transit wants you to know that this upcoming May is Bike Everywhere Month. It takes time to dust off a bike after a winter in the garage, so we’re sharing some of the reasons to get ready.

Preparing for Bike Everywhere Month

Get ready to win

This year Community Transit will host a competition via RideshareOnline for people working or living in Snohomish County.

During the month of May, we’ll award prizes to:

    • the top 10 individuals who bike the most miles
    • the top 10 individuals who get the most rides in (of any length)

Prizes include a fully loaded ORCA card with a full month paid fare, an on-demand bike locker card, and more! Just create an account, join the challenge, and track your bike trips in May to be eligible! (See below for FAQ). 

Get ready to ride

Biking isn't just fun — it also easily combines with Community Transit bus routes to get you farther. Watch our tutorials on loading your bike onto Community Transit's different buses, including Swift. Best of all? Bikes don't cost extra to bring along!

Map your path

Not only do our buses make it easy to take your bike farther, but our routes also serve many of Snohomish County’s amazing bike and pedestrian trails. Check out routes like the Interurban Trail, Centennial Trail, and more with our Community Transit bike maps.

Explore bike storage options

Worried about where to store your bike at a destination? We’ve got you covered – check out information on our bike locker program to learn how you can securely store your bike at park and rides or bus stations.
