Finally, the moment we've all been waiting for -- cherry blossom season!... which means also means #BikeinBloom is back!
Once again, Capital Bikeshare has teamed up with the National Cherry Blossom Festival to promote biking to the blossoms and other festival related events in their popular Bike to the Blossoms campaign. Riders are encouraged to keep an eye out for the #BikeInBloom, serving as a reminder that biking is one of the easiest and most convenient ways to see the city in bloom.
Kicking off on March 20, the campaign encourages participants to spot the #BikeInBloom out in the District and post a picture of the pink bike using the hashtag #BikeInBloom on social media. Each person that posts a photo on social media with #BikeInBloom will be entered to win a special prize.
Stay tuned and follow Capital Bikeshare on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram for the latest details.
