Bublr Bikes

Didn’t bring a bike along? No problem! The Bublr Bikes bike share system makes it easy to explore on a rented bicycle. You can even travel from one of Wauwatosa’s stations to a station downtown.

East Tosa Gran Prix

You won’t want to miss the East Tosa Gran Prix bike race at the end of June! This race is part of the Tour of America's Dairyland series, one of the largest competitive cycling events in the country, drawing more than 10,000 spectators. North Avenue in East Tosa is closed as cyclists ride in short-loop racing, or criterium, on this main arterial. Local North Avenue businesses in East Tosa have made it into a street festival with food and music attracting spectators from around the region.

Wauwatosa was an early adopter of bike boxes, which are painted spaces near intersections for bikes.
