International Winter Bike to Work Day is an annual event that encourages people around the world to commute to work by bicycle during the winter months. This day typically takes place on the second Friday of February each year. The goal is to promote cycling as a sustainable and healthy transportation option, even in colder climates.

Cyclists, whether regular commuters or occasional riders, are encouraged to participate in Winter Bike to Work Day by biking to their workplaces, regardless of the weather conditions. Participants often share their experiences on social media using the hashtag #WinterBiketoWorkDay, helping to create a sense of community and inspire others to embrace winter cycling.

The event aims to highlight the benefits of winter biking, such as reducing traffic congestion, lowering carbon emissions, promoting physical activity, and fostering a connection with the outdoors, even in colder temperatures. Winter Bike to Work Day is part of a broader movement to make cycling a year-round activity and to encourage the development of cycling-friendly infrastructure in various cities worldwide.
