Chicago’s great bicycle giveaway will begin this summer, with “at least 500” bikes, helmets, locks and lights distributed to qualifying residents 14 and older who don’t already own a bike.
The competition begins July 18 and continues through Aug. 4. During those 18 days, the Lightfoot administration will accept applications at www.chicago.gov/bikechicago. Paper applications can also be downloaded on that site and mailed to City Hall.
