Get on the bike lane to glory!

Dust off your bikes and gear up to participate in the EFCL’s 2025 Community League Bike Month Challenge!

The Challenge will begin on June 1 and run through to June 30. Whichever League’s members ride the farthest, wins! Leagues across the city have adopted the challenge as a fun way to promote active transportation and recreation in their neighbourhoods through a little friendly competition.

The 2024 Community League Bike Month Challenge was fantastic! We had a total of 31 Leagues collectively ride close to 148,000 kms — that’s the equivalent of nearly 4 times around the world!

To sign your League up for the Challenge, read through The Bike Month Toolkit. Then email erin.olefeldt@efcl.org to register your League and your League’s Data Collector.

Let’s see how far we can go in 2025! See you out there!

JOIN IN THE FUN

Your League can join at any time. See below for our toolkit on setting up a Strava club, which is the quickest and easiest way to track distances. We’ve also created social media posts and mileage update posts for your League to adapt to reduce the amount of work this takes.

Distance Reporting

Each League needs one designated data collector and reporter for the challenge. Individual riders should not add their mileage. Instead, be in touch with your League (or better yet, make sure to join your League’s Strava club).

If you’re here to report on your League’s weekly distances, fill out the form on the right.

If you’re here to find out how to become your League’s designated data reporter, email Erin erin.olefeldt@efcl.org.

Remember: Strava zeroes distance weekly on Sunday evenings at midnight local time. You will need to have a look at your League club’s distance later on Sunday evening to capture your weekly total.

It may take a couple days for your kms to be updated for the week.
