Celebrate Bike Month with ActiveSGV!

May is Bike Month—a time to celebrate cycling, community, and the ongoing movement for safer streets across the San Gabriel Valley.

ActiveSGV started 15 years ago as a small Facebook group of local cyclists and neighbors organizing for safer places to ride. Today, we’re a regional nonprofit still rooted in that same mission. Bikes are at the heart of what we do, and this month, we’re inviting you to ride with us, speak up for safer streets, and take action in your neighborhood.
