Join the BTMO, along with your neighbors and coworkers, for an exciting morning on May 17th from 7 to 10 AM at this year’s Bike, Walk, Breathe event! You’ll learn everything you need to know to prepare for Bike Month, Bike to Work Day, and beyond.

Come for a fun-filled event with giveaways, bike repair, music, outdoor spin classes, snacks, drinks, and representatives from Burbank organizations who will share valuable information and resources to help you break free from a daily commute of driving alone.

We will have two pit stops: one at the Downtown Burbank Metrolink station and another at The Pointe in the Media District.

At The Pointe pitstop, partners include the BTMO staff, Burbank Bike Angels, Go Green Bicycles, Burbank YMCA, Hoopty Bike Repair, Fleet Feet, Metro, Commute with Enterprise, Burbank Police Department, FIT Health Club, SFV Bicycle Club, Suja Juice, Burbank Bus, and more. Joiners can enjoy free bike check-ups, music, snacks/drinks, an outdoor spin class and sound bath (RSVP required), giveaways/raffles, and helpful resources to embrace a car-free commute.

In Downtown Burbank, commuters will be greeted at the Metrolink stop by partners, including the BTMO staff, Burbank Bus, YMCA, and Metrolink. Commuters can get helpful bike rack demonstrations, commuter resources, giveaways, and chances to win raffle prizes.

This annual event encourages commuters to bike to work (or wherever they need to go), helping to save money, improve health and lower stress levels — all while reducing traffic congestion and improving air quality.

Join us for:

  • Raffles and prizes
  • Free bike check-ups
  • Outdoor spin class and sound bath led by health instructor Samantha Bland 
  • Juices from Suja Organic
  • Refurbished bikes for sale from Burbank Bike Angels
  • Music
  • Resources from Metrolink, Metro, Go Green Bicycles, and more!
