Register now for HUB’s eight annual Bike to Work Week, which runs Monday, May 26 to Saturday, June 1.
All week long, new cyclists and experienced commuters alike can enjoy free coffee, snacks, maps and repairs at HUB stations at more than 50 locations on the region’s busiest bike routes. Any hardcore cyclists and fair-weather riders are encouraged to sign up along with first-time commuters who have never ridden their bike to work before.
Participants who register for free online can track their trip distance and time with the motivation of daily prizes. Groups and workplaces can also organize teams and track their results together.

To get you going for a single trip next week or to keep your wheels spinning if you already ride most days, HUB's executive director Erin O'Melinn had this to say: “Biking to work provides regular doses of exercise that can give you more energy, productivity and concentration at work. It also gives you extra spending money you saved from not paying for gas and parking.â€
HUB’s tracking system logs kilometers travelled, calories burned and greenhouse gases saved, so you can measure what you accomplish with each ride.
