The Biketober Business Challenge is on from 1-31 October and we’re encouraging staff to get involved in this fun opportunity to cycle and get fit with friends and colleagues.  

In partnership with the NSW State Government, Get Healthy at Work is running the friendly cycling challenge.

Workplaces cycle to see which organisations can get the most staff to ride a bike. It doesn’t matter if you ride every day or haven’t been on a bike in years. Ride for fun or transport anytime, anywhere throughout October.

There are loads of prizes for riding and encouraging each other and our friends to get involved. To register and join the Macquarie University team, visit the webpage here.

If you haven’t cycled for a while, don’t worry, you only need to ride a bike for 10 minutes for your participation to count towards our team’s score. And you can ride anywhere, any time during the Challenge.

If you already ride that’s great, keep it going – especially in October. If you have Strava or MapMyRide don’t forget to sync it with your Biketober account. Your rides will then be logged automatically.

Be quick – every person who registers goes in the draw for a Sunset Dinner Flight for two.
