Participant feedback

“ The Challenge inspired me to cycle to work as my default commuting method of transport, rather than as an occasional method. ”
“ I discovered that using the bike for short trips to the local shops was actually quicker and more fun for my daughter and I then dragging out the car, so I will definitely use it more in the months to come! ”
“ I am using my bike now as my mode of transport to work, and my children are showing a keen interest in cycling since I have started. ”
