May is Bike Month

Spring is here and May is a perfect month to enjoy Nebraska on a bicycle. There are many opportunities for you to be fit and active while bicycling. You can either ride to work or schools, check out your local park, neighborhood or trail and enjoy a ride today!

May has been designated as national Bike Month and May 16th-20th as Bike to Work Week. To help support these national efforts here in Nebraska, Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services and the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission have teamed up to promote these events. Whether you are at a school, worksite, or local public health department, here are several tools to help you promote your local events.

Here are several resources from the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services and the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission:
1.Nebraska Bike Safety Brochure
2.Draft Local Press Release
3.Nebraska Physical Activity Brochures (See website: http://www.dhhs.ne.gov/NAFH/BeActive.htm)
