250,000 Mile Pledge
Join Bay State residents as we try to collectively cycle more than 250,000 miles between May 11th-17th. That is like biking from the earth to the moon in one week! Participation is free. Just sign up and tell us how many miles you pledge to ride. Register now.
MassCommuter Challenge
The MassCommuter Challenge is a friendly competition amongst Massachusetts businesses and institutions. Support your workplace or institutional team by pledging to bike for all or part of your regular functional trips, such as commuting to work or school or running nearby errands. If work/school seems a little farther than you're willing to pedal, those trips to your local mass transit station or boarding location count too!!
Hop to it! It's time to pull that trusty steed out of the garage and begin incorporating a fun, healthy, non-polluting and sustainable commute into your routine! Register now.
