RALLY YOUR FRIENDS: TAKE THE TEAM BIKE CHALLENGE!Registration is now open!May is National Bike Month, and SCBC is proud to provide a little extra incentive by bringing back the annual Team Bike Challenge. This month-long contest is a chance to engage in a little friendly competition while creating a supportive environment to develop a serious bike commuting habit (the good kind!).Here’s what you do: Put together a team of 5 people (you can have as few as 2). There needs to be at least one person on your team who is considered a “novice” bike commuter. The more novices the better they’re worth more points to your team! It also pays to get a high profile person on your team an elected official, the CEO of your company, the Principal at your school. Of course, the most important thing as that the members of your team make utilitarian (to work, school, the grocery store) bike trips as many days as possible during May. The Sonoma County team with the most points at the end of the month wins (and prizes ARE involved as well as a reception). It’s worth forming multiple teams in your workplace, your neighborhood, at your school, etc. Multiple teams challenge each other to ride and ride more! And, if you were on a team last year, consider splitting up your 2008 team and having members form new teams this year doing this will help increase participation. Once you’ve figured out who’s on your team, return to 511.org to register and, in May, start logging your points. SCBC will be watching the points build! Let’s see who’ll unseat last year’s champs, the “EcoLeaders!” 2008 SONOMA COUNTY TEAM BIKE CHALLENGE WINNERS: |
