What is Your Best Bike Story?

CLIF Bar is challenging us to rethink the commute. Did you know that in the United States, an estimated 40% of urban travel is under two miles? 90% of those trips are taken by car (yikes!). In an effort to engage the community in the fight against climate change, the CLIF Bar 2-Mile Challenge was created as a call to replace as many car trips as possible with a bicycle. We love it!

To further celebrate and encourage bicycle lifestyles, CLIF Bar has partnered with GOOD to offer a contest to benefit organizations championing the bicycle movement. Three winners will be chosen to win up to $5,000 for a bicycle nonprofit of his or her choice (plus, a year's supply of CLIF Bars!). In order to win, submit a photograph along with your best bike story here by September 5th.

Check out the CLIF Bar 2-Mile Challenge and learn more about the power of rethinking the commute!

Nothing compares to the simple pleasure of a bike ride. -JFK
