Since 2021, we have continued expanding our offerings to include greater community outreach, beyond our core programs, through bicycling advocacy, education, and community-building events. These seek to bring greater awareness to bicycling in our community, and strengthen the sense of camaraderie among Manchester’s cyclists.
