Team Bike Challenge 2011 is now open for registration!

Bike to Work Day's Team Bike Challenge officially started on May 1st, 2011- register now. Gather your friends, neighbors, and coworkers and pedal to win. It's a fun and easy 

way to see just how much biking does for your health, budget, and the environment.

Here is how it works: form a team of 2-5 people. Earn points for your total daily mileage. Record your information via our website. You can also earn bonus points for competing various medal challenges, such as biking enough miles to burn a total pizza's worth of calories. At the end of the month, the team with the most amounts of points wins. 

If your business is too big to fit onto one team, then join the Company Bike Challenge. Compete for top honors against similar sized companies.

Last year, Team Bike Challenge had 2400 participants on 526 teams with a total of 316,359 miles biked.That's enough miles to circle the globe over 12.7 times! By biking their commutes, teams saved the planet over 174 tons of harmful toxic emissions.

Happy biking!
