It\u2019s also great for the environment of course!<\/p>\n<p>As the\u00a0largest cycling event in the UK, Bike Week encourages half a million people to join in local events, re-route their everyday\u00a0journeys and switch to cycling as the easiest way to get around. There are hundreds of events planned throughout the summer, right through to September.<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s Bike Week has a special emphasis on commuting to work. Many people will take part in \u2018buddy\u2019 rides with colleagues or take part in work place challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s how you can take part:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Prepare a <strong>Bike Breakfast<\/strong>: reward those who have cycled to work with a real coffee and a yummy pastry. That might encourage the fainthearted.<\/li>\n<li>Pair up with a colleague for a <strong>Buddy Ride<\/strong>. Work out the easiest route to work and see if you can incorporate a picturesque cycle path (depending on where you live) or a place of local interest.<\/li>\n<li>Plan a <strong>Social Ride<\/strong> to encourage new cyclists in your area. You could make some new friends!<\/li>\n<li>Stage a <strong>Fund-raising Ride<\/strong> with your mates. Work out a challenge and find some sponsors, then give the proceeds to a good cause.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Register your event at the <a href=\"http:\/\/bikeweek.org.uk\/\">Bike Week website<\/a> and you\u2019ll benefit from free support and advice to help you make it a success.
