May is Bike Month and organizations throughout Orange County are scheduling events to
celebrate bicycling as a fun and healthy transportation option.
In October 2016 California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) moved its District 12
headquarters from Irvine to Santa Ana. For Bike Month, Caltrans will be organizing a 'Bike to
Work Day" event on Tuesday, May 16, 2017, beginning at District 12 offices (1750 E 4t" St.) at
7:30 a.m. that will include a short Metrolink ride before highlighting some of the recent projects
completed in Santa Ana.
Metrolink will offer free rides throughout the network for all train riders who bring their bike
onboard during Bike to Work Week (May 15 — May 19).
OCTA Bike Festival is scheduled for April 30, 2017 in Dana Point as part of the Dana Point
Grand Prix and will include a BMX bike show, demos, bike vendors, free bike tune -ups, and
giveaways throughout the day. Additionally, OCTA will host a Bike Rally from the Orange
Metrolink Station to the OCTA offices on May 16t"
Bicycle organizations throughout Orange County will be participating in the Ride of Silence, an
international event aimed to honor and raise awareness for those cyclists that have been injured
or killed. The ride is a silent procession held in cities throughout the world on Wednesday, May
