What is Bike to Work Week?

Bike to Work Week, or BTWW for the cool kids, is a community event to celebrate bike commuting across Metro Vancouver. With over 75 Celebration Stations offering free drinks, snacks, bike mechanic services and great prizes, why wouldn’t you register to enjoy the outdoors and commute in a fit and fun way?!?

Getting involved is easy! Here’s the breakdown:

1. Register for Bike to Work Week. You can start a team, join a team or register solo.

2. Encourage your colleagues to join your team and help you win prizes!

3. Log your trips during Bike to Work Week to be entered to win more amazing prizes. Each day you log you’ll be entered to win a new bike!

4. Check out the Celebration Station Map to find out where you can stop for free snacks, free mechanic services and more prize draws throughout the week.

5. Consider becoming a member of HUB Cycling to support cycling improvements and bike education around the region.

**Please note** If you are or have ever been a HUB member, please login before registering. If you registered for Bike to Work Week between 2014 and 2016 you do not need to re-register. Simply login and log a trip to be a participant in the 2017 event.

Some of the great events surrounding this year’s BTWW include a free ‘bike-in’ movie night on May 27 at Queen Elizabeth Theatre Plaza and a free wrap-up BBQ on June 2 at Creekside Park near Science World.

If you need more inspiration, check out HUB’s 2017 Rush Hour challenge! Each year teams of three take cars, transit, and of course bikes, and race through Metro Vancouver to see which mode will come out on top!
