Bike Month is usually held from the last week of May to the final week of June but the coronavirus pandemic forced organizers to postpone until September.
During Bike Month, participating cities host a series of cycling events and challenges to get people out of the house and travelling their neighbourhoods in a safe and sustainable way.
Hamilton is one of many Ontario municipalities who participate.
