Get Ready for the 2016 Bike Commuter Challenge

Bike Commuter ChallengeThe Bike Commuter Challenge is an annual week-long biking celebration organized by the Active Transportation Alliance.

The event encourages new and experienced riders to get out and bike while creating friendly workplace competition among Chicagoland companies and organizations. This year, the competition kicks off on Friday, June 10 and runs through Friday, June 17.

Help Northwestern compete with other Chicago-area educational institutions for the title of Bike Commuter Challenge winner! Show your purple pride by registering as a member of the Northwestern University team, riding to campus, and logging your rides. Any bike commute counts, whether you ride a few blocks to a public transit stop or ride all the way from home to campus.

Northwestern will be celebrating with a free bike tune-up station and snacks and social gatherings for cyclists. When registering, please join the Northwestern University team rather than creating a new team. Additional details will be posted on the event page as the competition approaches. Stay tuned!
