BWCG rolls out new logo and bike tour calendar for 2017

Bike Walk Coral Gables, the City Beautiful’s bike and walk advocacy group, revealed the organization’s new logo and bike tours for the new year.

Some 50 to 100 people regularly attend the monthly bike tours that are offered in partnership with the Coral Gables Museum on the third Sunday of every month. The theme and route of the educational bicycle tours vary each month to offer participants different perspectives of Coral Gables.

The upcoming bike tours cover a wide range of topics including arts and crafts on February 19. Art Successes - Coral Gables’ Public Art Path is one of many bike tours that starts with a brief explanation of the museum’s exhibit. Once participants have had the chance to learn about the topic, they are escorted on their bikes by trained ride leaders on a scenic route to relevant locations around the city.

The anticipated Gables Bike Day, an event that closes streets to cars for people to safely walk and bike, is set for Sunday, March 12. Over a thousand people from around South Florida descend on downtown Coral Gables to bike, walk, roller-blade and skate board on streets that are usually filled with cars. Bike Walk Coral Gables has already started big plans for this sixth annual celebration.

Bike Walk Coral Gables is also proud to have a new look with an updated organization logo and website. The new logo instantly communicates the non-profit’s mission of safe biking and walking, while it also ties into the City Beautiful with the use of the iconic street sign. The logo was designed by local graphic designer, Little Gables Group.
