Employees riding to work reduces the demand for staff car parking spaces. Similarly for clients and visitors, trading one or two car spaces for a dozen bike spaces means more space for less cost and helps organisations to earn respect as a bike-friendly business.

Creating a workplace BUG (bicycle user group) is a great way to spread the ride to work message.
Here’s a few tips for your BUG:
- Ride2Work Day is a great way for regular and new cyclists to get to know each other, and you may even entice some more of your colleagues to commute to work by bike.
- Produce a regular newsletter, set up a BUG website or intranet site and produce a site map showing the location of your bike parking, showers and other bike facilities.
- Start your own bike buddy scheme by pairing new riders with experienced riders so they can share their route together.
- Workshops are a great way to share tips, answer questions and start discussions.
