Virtual Event - #Maine #BikePed Monthly Meetups

February 16 @ 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm

"Join us for Monthly Maine Bike Ped Meetups! Across Maine, local bike/ped committees, planning commissions, non-profits, and volunteers are working hard to improve safe, enjoyable, and practical active and alternate transportation options. But we aren’t always talking to one another! In these virtual monthly meetings, we hope we can learn from each other’s successes and challenges, get advice, and share resources in a casual setting – a forum for those already active in the bike/ped world, as well as for those who are curious about the current work being done or who want to start their own local conversations. Meetings recur every third Monday of the month at 4 PM via Zoom (Link below). Meetings will be ~45 minutes and will consist of introductions, share outs, and time for questions."

#BicycleCoalitionOfMaine Where to Ride in #Maine! Includes interactive routes maps!

"Are you looking for inspiration on where to ride? Maine has something to offer everyone: winding, remote country lanes, picturesque coastal routes, quiet rail trails, and miles of mountainous terrain. We’ve curated hundreds of routes, from easy and short to advanced, on and off-road, with points of interest including bike service locations, food stops, scenic views, parks, and more. The routes can sync to your smartphone or GPS device to give you reliable turn-by-turn directions.

"Whether you are a Maine resident or you are coming to ride from out of state, we all have a responsibility to Look Out for ME. Let’s work together to treat Maine’s abundant #NaturalResources with respect.

"Looking for past BikeMaine routes?

"Want the routes from the #WomenFemmes&Thems Ride Summer Series?

"Only interested in unpaved routes? You can find our 'Gravel Grinds'."
