The why
Creates an opportunity for people to come together by removing barriers and fostering a sense of belonging. Especially in a time where COVID-19 and quarantine has separated us in more ways than just physical. Also provides a way to explore our city at a leisurely pace in a way that you can’t appreciate by car. Which can give the opportunity to see places that may need attention as far as street lights and building a bicycle-friendly city. All of our rides, including Glow The Yo, involve training on cycling safety laws as well as promote active transportation, easy commutes, and health and wellness benefits.
