We (also) cycle to work

In May we have been cycling to work. We come from different places, so some have cycled far and some have cycled less far. We have cycled together and separately. We have cycled on electric bikes, mountain bikes and racing bikes. Some have cycled on devil's hills and others have given cake.

Our team consisted of 13 participants, one of whom lives just 500 meters away, while a few live more than 30 km away.

"We cycle to work" has been around for almost 30 years, and we chose to participate both because it strengthens collaboration and because it has a wide range of health benefits.

So in May we cycled for health, for community and for mood. It also means less congestion on the roads, cleaner air and less CO2, so it's a win-win.

In total we have cycled 1339 kilometers - plus 896 kilometers of leisure cycling, which is very well done.

Even though the campaign is officially over, we can still cycle to work, so many of us continue to pedal when time and finances allow.
