BIKE TO THE ZOO DAY

 

(Mon., May 14, 2012) – The City and County of Honolulu's 4th annual Bike to the Zoo Day will be on Sunday, May 20, 2012. The event is from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Anyone who rides a bicycle to the Honolulu Zoo will get in free. Bicyclists should enter from the Monsarrat Avenue gate.

 

There will be free valet bicycle parking available. The first 200 bicyclists will receive a free bag with goodies.

 

The City is providing this free event to encourage people to ride bicycles for short trips instead of driving their cars. Mayor Peter Carlisle endorses this multi-modal approach to transportation in saying, "We hope this fun, free event will help people realize the potential of the bicycle as an alternative to the car for these shorter trips."
