Commuter Challenge
Throw down the gauntlet this year and
challenge another company in your sector to outdo each other. If you're the Commuter Challenge coordinator at your workplace, don't miss the
orientation (and delicious lunch) on May 18. Sign up for a free session on
tools and tips to help your co-workers switch to an active or green commute. Find some inspiration or add your story to the
Commuters of Manitoba. Everyone is invited to
join us for the launch on June 1.
Is your workplace located in
downtown Winnipeg? If so,
nominate a co-worker who normally drives to be awarded a 5-day bus pass during the Commuter Challenge!
Nomination forms due by May 27.
Portage shares and repairs bikes
Portage la Prairie is a bustling place for bikes these days. From their shared bike program to a new community bike repair shop (thanks to
CMHA and modelled after the
WRENCH) to Bike Week plans, there's lots happening on two wheels.
Keep up to date.
Weirdly interesting
Finally, a detailed graphic on how to wear a
bicycle helmet! And who'd have thought you'd find the
history of cycling on cigarette cards (seriously)? Put that in your pipe, tobacco companies. Have you ever tried to draw a bike from memory? It ain't easy. And
even harder to ride.
