Welcome to the Bike Colorado Springs Bike Ambassador Program

Our young Bike Ambassador program founded in 2020 is a community resource built to locally support all things bicycles. In the programs first year our Ambassadors helped Parks staff the Garden of the Gods Early Bird Hike & Bike events, supported trail ribbon cuttings, and distributed Bike To Biz Week materials to local businesses.

The Bicycle Ambassador program is all-volunteer but serve in a professional capacity, partnering with beneficiaries to support events and projects throughout the Pikes Peak Region.

Want to become a Bicycle Ambassador?

If you are a community-minded individual, we are looking for people like you help us build out a full fledged program in the Pikes Peak Region modeled after the successful Fort Collins Bicycle Ambassador Program.
