On 17 October 2007 Bicycle Victoria will host this year’s National Ride to Work Day. Riders from all states and territories can participate. Government and corporate organisations from around Australia have made the commitment to join this huge event.
Estimated participation this year is:
Over 60,000 participants
Over 2600 registered workplaces, many hosting their own breakfasts
More than 70 community breakfast events in CBDs and town centres.
According to the Ride to Work website:
“National Ride to Work Day will stimulate over 10,600 tonnes of Greenhouse Gas savings in the first three years - that’s more than 2650 hot air balloons or 212,000,000 “black balloons” full of CO2!”
