During Bike Month you can win big. Win FAME and VIP treatment at the Bike Month Blowout by entering the I'm LIKE My BIKE Contest. Win a bicycle escorted shopping spree by entering the Consumer Challenge Sweepstakes. There are also two opportunities to win a bike during Bike Month:

1. Congratulations to Alan who won the Fat Tire Cruiser at Bike Fest. Pedal on!

 

2. To win a womens/mens Linus commuter bike, collect tickets at each Bike Month event and turn them in at the BIKE MONTH BLOWOUT on June 2nd. The more events you attend, the higher your chance of winning. (You must be present to win.)
