Description
Commuting for work, school or play?
Walk, cycle, roll or take transit instead!
Join us for Active Commute Week, a city-wide movement to swap your solo drive for an active ride!
Sign up to be part of your neighbourhood or school team and log your commute each day to compete against other groups. The group with the most distance travelled will win lunch with their team (and bragging rights). Help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and boost your health while having fun!
