Nat'l Bike Challenge Begins May 1: Bike More and Beat Pittsburgh!

Make every mile on your bike count between May 1 and August 31 -- AND help Cleveland BEAT Pittsburgh!

Take the National Bike Challenge (www.nationalbikechallenge.org) to boost your miles and time on your bike (plus track calories burned and CO2 saved via Endomondo), share your love of bicycling, and help CLE sign up more bicyclists than PGH! Last year 30,000 cyclists took the challenge nationwide, and Pittsburgh beat Cleveland for sign-ups. This year, they hope 50,000 people will take the challenge (and of course we hope -- nay, PLAN! -- to beat to Pittsburgh)!

You can do it individually, or join or create teams for camaraderie and friendly competition. (Those in Bay Village, Rocky River and Medina can feel free to join the team, "Bike To School Challenge Parents and Teachers" and ride in support of the students.)

C'mon -- LET'S RIDE and BEAT PGH!
