Grab life by the handlebars and join UCLA Transportation all May as we highlight the health and wellness advantages of riding a bike. Biking helps you feel healthier and happier, and when lots of people ride, communities are safer and friendlier, and it's greener for the environment.
Biking is good for the mind and body, improving physical and mental health in several ways: strengthening the immune system, toning muscles, boosting mood, easing stress, and much more. Students, faculty, and staff — get pumped to ride and thrive this month!
Whether you regularly bike commute to campus, are a casual recreational rider, or are thinking about hopping in the bike saddle for the first time or again after ages, pedal push over to a pit stop, mobile repair station pop-ups with the UCLA Bike Shop and Velofix, and a special luncheon.
