Employees are invited to commute to work on two wheels versus four during Bike to Work Week on June 21-29.

Bike to Work Week is a great opportunity to take advantage of the extensive trail system DuPage County enjoys, including the Illinois Prairie Path and Great Western Trail that links 14 communities.  Employees can join Chairman Cronin, County Board members and other bicycle enthusiasts as they bike to work on Tuesday, June 26, from Elmhurst to the County campus.

Participants will meet at 7 a.m. at the Illinois Prairie Path and Spring Road in Elmhurst.  If you are interested in joining the ride, please contact Sidney Kenyon at   Sidney.Kenyon@dupageco.org.

Bike racks are available throughout campus, including on the blue level of the 421 parking garage and outside the public entrance of the JTK Administration Building.

DuPage County has more than 500 miles of bikeways and trails suitable for bicycle travel.  The County’s website features DuPage Trails software that allows bicyclists to map the safest route between two destinations with point-by-point directions.  To find a trail near you or to access the County’s DuPage Trails app, visit www.dupageco.org/bikeways.
