Thousands of Minnesota students are gearing up to for Bike to School Day on Wednesday, May 8, and the Minnesota Department of Transportation encourages more schools to get involved.
More than 150 Minnesota schools have signed up to participate, including Burnside Elementary and Twin Bluff Middle School in Red Wing, Hastings Middle School, and Lincoln High School in Hastings. Â Â
Bike to School Day is a healthy way to promote safe biking and walking activities in an academic setting. Each year this event is sponsored by MnDOT and Minnesota Safe Routes to School.
