RRA Bike Challenge
June is bike month, and with the days getting longer and the temperatures heating up, it's the perfect time to hop on your bike and participate in our month-long commuter challenge!
We are challenging Sudburians to substitute their cars for bikes as they cycle through the month to get to work or school and to run day-to-day errands.
Newbie bikers and avid cyclists alike can participate by completing the free Bike Challenge registration form below at any point throughout the month of June.
This is your chance to get outside, get active and throw your name in the draw for your chance at winning some great prizes!
The Prizes
WEEKLY PRIZES
There will be a prize giveaway each week. Now here’s the catch, we aren’t interested in the number of kilometers you travel each week, instead we are focusing on encouraging you to get out and incorporate active transportation by bike into your day-to-day lives!
