National Bike Challenge
The National Bike Challenge is a nationwide event uniting thousands of current bicyclists — and encouraging countless new riders. It is a free and easy way to challenge yourself, your colleagues and your community to ride more while competing on a local, state and national level.
The Challenge runs May 1 to Septemer 30, 2013 — sign up today and make every mile count!
In 2012, more than 30,000 riders logged more than 10 million miles in the first year of this friendly online competition. Based on that stunning success, we’re upping the ante in 2013 — aiming for 50,000 riders to pedal more than 20 million miles between May 1 and September 30.
The Challenge is a great way to get connected to other bike-friendly — and bike-curious — folks in your community and across the country. Join the challenge at any time as an individual or form a team. Log your mileage online and get in the running for great raffle prizes, like jerseys from Sierra Nevada, a bike from Trek, or a cruiser from New Belgium Brewing Company!

Why Join the National Bike Challenge?
- Fun: Join a team, ride solo, or compete against different cities and workplaces. Challenge yourself to ride more this summer, and it’ll be a challenge to not have fun doing it!
- Health: By riding to work, the grocery store, or just around the block, you’ll be burning calories with a smile on your face.
- Savings: By leaving the car at home more often, you can reduce maintenance, fuel and parking expenses. Without the pain at the pump, you’ll have extra money to spend on a nice cold beverage after a summer afternoon ride.
- Convenience: Nearly 50 percent of all trips in metropolitan areas are three miles or less and 28 percent are one mile or less — distances easily covered by bicycle! Even if you’re out in the country, biking to school, church, or a friends’ house can be a nice easy trip.
- Celebration: Joining the Challenge is a great way to showcase the joy of riding and build relationships within your community. Make a neighborhood team, organize a ride in your town, and log those miles!
Make every mile count this summer... JOIN THE NATIONAL BIKE CHALLENGE TODAY!
