Stadtwerke team covers 12,432 kilometers by bike
The Bike Offenbach team covered 12,432 kilometers by bike during the campaign period from 7 to 27 June.
In the team under the patronage of Mayor Sabine Groß and Stadtwerke Managing Director Peter Walther, 64 cyclists took to the pedals. With their total distance covered on 1,576 journeys, they came 3rd out of 42 teams in the city.
The Europe-wide Climate Alliance network has been organizing the City Cycling competition since 2008 to mobilize people to make the switch. The aim is to cycle as many everyday journeys as possible in a climate-friendly way for 21 days. Every kilometer, whether for business or pleasure, counts - especially if the route would otherwise have been covered by car. In this case, Team Bike Offenbach would have avoided exactly 2,063.7 kilograms of CO2.
