Bike Month 2010 Its time to gear up for Bike Month 2010! Get involved by forming a "Pod" (event planning group) or join an existing Pod. Last May we had over 50 free community bike events, all led by people like you. Get involved, plan your own event or help with an already existing event. Email Kelsie for more info, or become a fan on Facebook to recieve the latest Bike Month information. Quick Links   > Planning "Pod" Meeting Calendar   > How to get around town on your bike  > Bike Month 2009   What are Pods? Pods are groups of volunteers that plan events during Bike Month. For example, a Pod of friends planned an Ice Cream Social on the Morro Bike Boulevard last year and another Pod of folks planned the Bike Month Fashion Show. Pods can be as simple as a bike breakfast or as complex as a Bike Art Gallery. Pods are the foundation of Bike Month - a truly human powered event. Join us during Bike Month 2010 and make a difference in your community - and have fun at the same time. You can start your own Pod, join an already existing one, or take an already brainstormed event and take off. To get invovled, email Kelsie at kgreer@rideshare.org.   Bike Month 2010 Sponsorship Bike Month is made possible by cash or in-kind donations by businesses and organizations. Every year, Rideshare provides mini-grants to community members who want to plan their own FREE community bike event. Last year, we had over 57 events take place during May, all because of the generous support from our sponsors and the community. We also kept 34,091 pounds of emissions from entering the air we breathe and reduced 13,761 trips from our roads, making our community safer, cleaner and healthier. If you would like to support our efforts by becoming a sponsor, please contact us.   >Letter to sponsors >Sponsorship levels  Many thanks to our already confirmed sponsors for Bike Month 2010 - Life in the Bike Lane: - City of SLO - Air Pollution Control District - New Times - Trinity Cyclery - SLO Transit		Events already confirmed for Bike Month 2010! - Kick Off Event, Arroyo Grande - Bike Art Show, Atascadero - Bike Wine Tasting, Edna Valley - Kidicle Mass, San Luis Obispo - Cal Poly Bike Fest Check out more events on the Rideshare Bike Calendar.
