FDOT District 5 has created a toolkit intended for middle and high schools to conduct an e-bike campaign. The toolkit includes brochures, posters, presentations, and social media posts, including a guide on How to Use these materials.

While the toolkit is geared towards middle and high school students, you may find it useful to use within your neighborhood or other organizations within your community.

🚲❤️ The Haven IS READY TO RIDE!

This is what the Glow Ride is all about.

Recently, Team Bicycles International loaded up our Bike-O-Rama trailer and headed to The Haven for a very special delivery. New rides were ready, trikes had been overhauled, and we had the privilege of surprising Haven residents with bikes built to help them experience more freedom, independence, movement, friendship—and FUN!

Seeing everyone come outside, discover their rides, and start pedaling made for a morning we won’t soon forget. ❤️

🎶 And the soundtrack you’re hearing in this video isn’t just background music! WC SOUNDS created an original song specifically for The Haven called “Haven Ready to Ride.” You can listen to the full song here:

But here’s the most important part:

None of this happens without the support of our Glow Ride.

Every registration, every rider, every sponsor and every person who supports the Glow Ride helps us turn that support back into opportunities like this in our community.

Bicycles International has been part of this community for 40 years, and we can’t think of a better way to celebrate than helping more people experience the joy and freedom of riding. 🚲

Thank you to The Haven, our incredible Team BI members, WC SOUNDS, our Glow Ride supporters, and everyone who helps us keep more people riding.

Together, we ride. ❤️🚲

Riding an e-bike means sharing space with drivers, pedestrians, and other cyclists. Be a good neighbor on the road.

🚶 Slow down and yield to people on foot. On sidewalks, you’re the guest.
🔔 Ring a bell or say “On your left” when passing.
📱 Put your phone away. One earbud is legal, but two is not.
⚠️ Wheelies and stunts can result in arrest, bike confiscation, and may lead to e-bikes getting banned or age-restricted for everyone.
