January Commute Challenge
In 2020, lets vow to contribute to the society in reducing carbon footprint. Lets all use cycle as a mode for our commuting.
2020 is going to usher in lots of opportunities to all of us. We at CBC want to welcome the year on a "green" note. A challenge which tests your discipline and commitment.
Park yourself to 5 or 10 or 15+ days of commuting in Jan.
Please commit your days of commuting in Jan and lets achieve the target !!
Category selection for Jan Commute Challenge
- Amateur - 5 Days of Initiation
- Pro - 10 days of Commute

What is the minimum distance of commute which is considered?
The aim of the challenge is to motivate all of them to take up cycling for commuting. But for challenge sake, we have a minimum distance criterion of 3km (one way) for your commute. All commuting rides less than 3 km will be ignored.
What are the categories for the commute challenge?
We have 3 categories – 5, 10 and >=15 days of commute. Please select a category according to your convenience. Please remember that the third category is basically all days commute. We have maintained >=15days keeping in mind the different number of working days in Jan for different ppl. Ppl choosing the third category, please aim to commute on all days.
What is the main motive of the challenge?
Pretty straight forward isn’t it? Pulling in as many ppl as possible in 2020 and promoting cycling as means of transport and commute
Is the challenge applicable only for commuting to work?
No, commute to college, school, super markets all of them count!! Commute by cycle instead of a motorbike/car is welcome.
Does morning cycling ride for fitness count for this challenge?
No
Who tracks the progress, status etc for the challenge?
Yes, there is a backend team doing the same. But then, nothing is foolproof and we expect the riders to be sincere and truthful. After all, our aim is to promote cycling for commuting purposes and we leave it to the riders and their conscience.
