From Commute PA
This May, it’s time to swap four wheels for two. As National Bike Month kicks off, Commute PA is inviting commuters to embrace the ride, improve their health, and earn rewards through a month-long celebration of cycling.
Whether you are a seasoned cyclist or dusting off your bike for the first time this spring, there has never been a better time to discover the benefits of biking. Beyond the environmental impact, commuting by bike offers a significant boost to personal wellness and provides a welcome relief to the wallet.
The Bike Bash Challenge: Gear up and go!
To add some high-voltage excitement to the month, Commute PA’s “Bike Hero,” Bike Bolt, is issuing a challenge to all commuters. Participants who ditch the car in favor of two wheels have the chance to be rewarded for their efforts.
Commute PA will be giving away four $100.00 Tango gift cards to lucky cyclists who log their trips throughout May. Entering the drawing is simple:
- Ride: Swap your car commute for a bicycle trip.
- Record: Log at least four bicycle trips in the Commute PA app or website during the month of May.
- Win: By logging four trips, users are automatically entered for a chance to win one of the $100.00 gift cards.

Commute PA is committed to ensuring every rider, regardless of experience level, feels confident on the road. Navigating new routes doesn’t have to be a solo mission.
- Resources and local events: Commuters are encouraged to visit the official Bike Month Webpage to discover regional “Bike Month” activities, organized group rides, and special transit promotions designed to make cycling more accessible.
- Personalized assistance: For those who need help navigating the Commute PA platform, finding the safest bike routes, or connecting with a “bike buddy,” the Commute PA team is available to help. Personalized assistance is just a phone call away at 1-866-579-7433.
