Bicycle Network Victoria: Join the Commuter Revolution

National Ride to Work Day is the perfect opportunity to have a go at riding to work. This year (2010) we had 36,188 participants celebrating the event at over 120 community breakfasts across the country.

In 2009, our registered riders pedalled 700,207km which equates to riding around the world 17 times!
