Who we are

City of Chicago's Bicycling Ambassadors and Junior Ambassadors are the City of Chicago’s bike-safety and public-awareness outreach team. We promote safety for all road users – bike riders, motorists, and pedestrians – and encourage all Chicagoans ride their bikes more. Read more

What we do

Ambassadors attend events year round, especially between May and September, talking to Chicagoans about bicycling. Ambassador events include: outreach at music festivals in Grant Park, neighborhood health fairs, block parties, and farmers markets. Ambassadors also give bicycle safety demonstrations at day camps, libraries, and schools, as well as bike to work presentations for area businesses. Invite City of Chicago's Bicycling Ambassadors to your event.

Learn more about the Share the Road Campaign. A program that targets motorists, pedestrians and bicyclists by educating them about how to share the road and prevent crashes. READ MORE HERE.

The City of Chicago's Bicycling Ambassadors are finished for the season.  We will be back in the Spring of 2012.  If you would like to request free bike maps please click here.
