On Friday, May 10 from 7-9 AM, Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) invites North Texans to start their commute on two wheels as part of the Dallas area's 2024 “Bike to Work Day” annual event.

Launched in 2001, Bike to Work Day is a national event to encourage people to try bicycle commuting as a healthy and safe alternative to driving. DART buses and trains have features that make it simple to combine riding your bike with riding public transit. On the front of DART buses, you'll find easy-to-use storage racks, while on rail you can just roll your bike onto the train. At rail stations and transit centers, DART offers bike racks as well as bike lids. Both are free of charge and available on a first-come, first-served basis.

One winner will be randomly selected to receive a custom DART Bike at the annual “Bike to Work Day” event on Friday, May 10, from 7-9 AM at Akard Station, the event at the Akard location, plus the events at the locations listed below will feature free refreshments as well as bike safety checks and more!

• CityLine/Bush Station
• Cockrell Hill
• Tyler/Vernon Station
• Downtown Carrollton Station
