REC SET GO WAS A SUCCESS! |
We celebrated Florida Bike Month at William B. Armstrong Park with our partners, the City of Pembroke Pines, and the Pembroke Pines Police Department this past Saturday. The day was filled with snow cones, music, giveaways, helmet fittings, bike safety tips, and fun! The REC SET GO Family Bike Rodeo was a success, and it proved to be fun for the whole family. |

LOVE TO RIDE CHALLENGE
Our partner at FDOT District 4 is hosting their annual Love to Ride Bike Challenge in celebration of Florida Bike Month. The challenge is a fun, free competition between workplaces to see who can earn the most points for riding and encouraging others during March. It’s not all about who can ride the most miles, but about encouraging as many people as possible to enjoy riding their bike for health, happiness, and fun.
