MILWAUKEE – The Wisconsin Bike Fed proudly announces Wisconsin Bike Week June 1-8, 2025.

This year we are delighted to present an exciting lineup of events and programs designed to educate, engage, and encourage cyclists of all ages and skill levels. Wisconsin Bike Week is a motivational, family-friendly celebration of cycling. Highlights include:

  • Smart Cycling Classes: Covering everything from beginner basics to advanced techniques, with special tips for safe E-bike use.
  • Crosswalk Action Training: Hands-on sessions to improve crosswalk safety for pedestrians and cyclists.
  • Adult Learn-to-Ride Sessions: Perfect for adults who have never learned to ride and want to build confidence.
  • Commuter Stations: These stations typically offer amenities and services aimed at making biking to work or other destinations more convenient, safe, and enjoyable.

In addition to in-person events, the Bike Fed will distribute educational materials throughout the week. Communities will have access to refreshed pamphlets, downloadable PSAs, and artwork to help promote cycling safety and awareness. Yard signs promoting ‘Give Cyclists 3 Feet’ are available for pick up at the Bike Fed offices in Milwaukee and Madison.

Wisconsin Bike Week is hosted by the Wisconsin Bike Fed. Scheduled events can be found on the Bike Fed’s Bike Week page.
