Why participate?

After 20 minutes of exercise your body releases the messenger substances serotonin and dopamine. These help you to achieve new feelings of happiness in a natural way. In addition, a morning bike ride increases your receptiveness and concentration.
FITNESS
30 minutes exercise a day have a significantly positive effect on your fitness and health. Regular exercise leads to a lower resting pulse rate and a higher oxygen level in your blood count. Jump on your bike and stay in good shape!

Is your day made up of stress, hectic rush and deadline pressure? Sufficient exercise helps you to get rid of stress hormones and give your body and mind the relaxation needed.
SAVE MONEY

«Experience the awakening of the day, encounters with cyclists and walkers that only consist of waving hello, and with time grow to a kind of wordless relationship or perhaps one day get caught in a conversation. The ride home is for me, apart from being a fitness programme, also the best form of mental hygiene: switching off completely and leaving work behind, before I get back to the family.»Dino Zanchelli Participant bike to work
