Open Streets Minneapolis is part of a global movement to make streets places that put people first.
During these free, family-friendly events, local nonprofit Our Streets Minneapolis partners with the City of Minneapolis to temporarily close major thoroughfares to car traffic, opening them to people biking, walking, rolling, and connecting with neighbors and local businesses.
Open Streets Minneapolis events help us experience streets as public spaces where communities thrive. Congested city streets become vibrant, pedestrian-friendly boulevards where people can dream, play, and explore. Open Streets Minneapolis events aim to fundamentally change in how people think about their city streets.
At each Open Streets Minneapolis event, local businesses, artists, and community groups transform their streets, showcasing the diversity, creativity, and culture of Minneapolis

Pizza Pedals & Professors (Host by Biking With B.A.D.D.I.E.S)
Pedal Don’t Break
Biking with Baddies is a group of BIPOC individuals that come together to ride, meditate, and have a great time! We ride in style, we ride in elegance, and we ride in peace. We pedal, don’t break. In order to learn how to do so, Biking with Baddies is teaming with Break the cycle!
Break the cycle will have a bike professor on hand ready to teach us a few things regarding bike maintenance. It can be very intimidating to travel around on a bike without knowing how to handle emergency situations. We have to be prepared for the unexpected and/or ready to help others in the time of need.
Bike knowledge allows us to ride in confidence. Having more confidence on your bike means more rides are manifesting. We’ll have more means of transportation when it comes to commute, traveling, and let’s not forget a fun way to exercise!
We will be meeting at Trail Head and then heading over to Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden were we’ll be hiking, and berry picking!
