The Bicycle NSW Commuter Challenge is an initiative to encourage and reward individuals to cycle all or part of the journey to work and to also encourage cycling outside of the workplace - for transport, fitness and recreation.
Why take part?
The aim of the challenge is to reward those already cycling for transport, fitness and/or recreation and to inspire those who are considering cycling as an alternative to their existing forms of transport or those that want to begin cycling as a leisure activity.
How does it work?
The challenge invites individuals to register and accumulate 500km of cycling by either riding to work or outside of work (e.g. with family, as part of a cycling club, for transport etc). There are a number of great prizes on offer including cycle computers, Bicycle NSW memberships, a range of cycling accessories and free entry to a number of cycling events (including Sydney's largest recreational cycling event - Spring Cycle 2010).
How do I register?
To register simply complete the online registration form. Upon completing the form you will be sent a digital logbook in which you can record your rides. Rides of any distance can be included in the logbook. Upon receiving the completed logbook participants will receive a gold medal*, certificate of completion and the opportunity to win the prizes on offer.
Communication
A monthly newsletter is sent to all participants which details the total number of registrations, companies/organisations with the largest number of registrations and case studies on participants taking part in the challenge.
Timeframes
You can register for the challenge anytime until Friday 26th November 2010. All participants have until Friday 17th December 2010 to complete the challenge.
