Every Ride Counts 2019

Last year, Plymouth City Council’s Plymotion team organised Plymouth’s first Workplace Cycle Challenge. The challenge pits teams from organisations in Plymouth against each other to achieve the most bike trips through their daily commutes. This year’s challenge will see teams competing again for the top place, and each bike trip they take, whether a long or short journey, counts.

One of last year’s participants said: “I have often thought about riding my bike to work but always found an excuse not to! This was just what I needed to get me to take the plunge and I have carried on cycling into work now the Plymotion event is over…”

Registration is open now via the Plymotion web page and closes on 7th June 2019 with the challenge will take place over 4 weeks from 3 – 30 June 2019.

You could win up to £100 worth of vouchers for best team (four in a team) and best individual. There is also a prize draw of £50 worth of vouchers up for grabs when you register so why not sign up now.
