We’re looking for Madison Bikers of all ages who brave the elements and bike into early winter, bike in early spring or even bike year round to share their tips and expertise in dressing for the weather! Madison Bikes is excited to host the Winter Bike Fashion Show this December 9th from 1-4pm at the High Noon Saloon. There will be food, camaraderie, and of course a fashion show highlighting real Madisonians and their winter weather gear. If you’ve discovered a great solution to keeping your hands warm and dry, or have found a way to keep your toes from freezing, we’d love to have you join the fashion show as a model. Do you have a great tip for avoiding fogged up glasses or for keeping your bike lock dry and functional? We’d love to have you!
We’re looking for:
-
year round bikers to show off their biking clothes and bike gear
-
Shoulder season (late fall or early spring) riders to show off their biking clothes and bike gear
-
Adults and kids (both kids who ride their own bikes, and kids who are transported by bike)
-
Gear for winter biking and demo bikes- how do you adapt your bike for winter riding?
-
We love DIY solutions that make giving winter bike a try easy and inexpensive!
To apply, please complete the following questions and submit to winterbike@madisonbikes.org, ideally with a picture of you in your biking clothes and/or you with your bike by 11/19, noon.

What’s your number one tip for people riding in winter?
