Reduce CO2 emissions while you improve your fitness level! Encourage your friends, coworkers and department colleagues to try bicycling to campus. See challenge guidelines (PDF). Total miles and days add up, so participation at any level benefits your team! Even if team members only ride on Bike To Work Day, the miles add up. Get your team together and sign up at CommuterChallenges.com. (Click on the Bicycle Commute Challenge icon to begin.)

Logging your bike commute miles also calculates CO2 reductions. Again this year, it's not about percentages, it's about total team CO2 reduction. If you have questions, contact Commute Solutions, (858) 534-7433weekdays between 7a.m. and 5 p.m.

Safety and route planning matter. See Resources for Bicyclists for helmet discounts and information about safe bicycling techniques.

UC San Diego is participating in the “Mega” category in the regional iCommute challenge. All logged trips help us compete against similar size San Diego companies. UCSD employees and students who commute by bike on Bike to Work Day, May 18, will earn double points. Details (PDF)

Note: This Corporate Challenge requires separate sign up and log-ins than reporting from the UCSD Bicycle Commute Challenge. You can easily participate in both!
