Join us to celebrate International Women's Day 2022 by taking a bike ride. International Women's Day: Together We Ride coordinates bike rides across the world to help promote the vision of equality for all. To help celebrate this event we will take a bike ride starting at Common Ground Food Coop and bike through campus to Champaign. We will stop for a treat at the Lodgic's Everyday Kitchen, and then ride back via a different campus route.
Helmets are recommended! Plan to wear gear needed for the weather!
You can learn the IL rules of the road and safety tips using the IL Bike Safety Quiz:
