The Challenge
The Challenge aims to encourage you to cycle more often, creating cycling habits that will last over time, making you more active, happier and healthier!
It’s easy to take part!
- Register on this website and log the cycle trips you make
- We will send you a cyclometer to help you record how far you have cycled
- Log your cycle trips each month
- Every person who logs at least one trip during a calendar month will be entered into a monthly prize draw to win £75 of vouchers (£25 for Under 16s)
- If you encourage others to take part and they sign-up we will send you a pair of cinema tickets to enjoy a film for free!
By logging your cycle trips regularly, you will be able to:
- Keep track of the distance you’ve cycled
- See the amount of calories you’ve burned
- Estimate the amount of Co2 you’ve saved by cycling rather than using the car
- Have the chance of winning some great prizes!
You’ll be amazed at how quickly the miles and calories you’ve burned build up!
The challenge runs from 1 March to 31 July 2010. Get involved early to start feeling the benefits of cycling and make sure you log your cycling at least once a month to be entered into our monthly prize draw.
Get started!
