Why You Should Sponsor Bike Indianapolis

Bike Indianapolis has been directly involved in many projects that have increased the number cyclists in and around Indianapolis. This list contains some, but not all of our successes:

  • Helped to establish the Indianapolis Fatal Crash Review Team.

  • Organize and manage Indianapolis’ annual Bike To Work Day and Bike to the 500 every May.

  • Hosted the first ever national gathering of Major Taylor cycling clubs, the Major Taylor Invitational in 2022 and, due to the overwhelming positive response, hosted it for a second year in 2023.
