Ride2Work Day 2022 – Highlights
Congratulations to everyone who chose the bike for their commute on National Ride2Work Day 2022. The great news is we can pedal to work every day!
Make your commute count
Whether you’re a regular two-wheeled commuter or looking to start a new healthy habit, National Ride2Work Day is all about supporting your decision to jump on the bike.
For people new to riding, National Ride2Work Day is a fantastic way to kickstart a new habit, to get all your physical activity in before you kick off your work day. For existing riders, it’s a chance to celebrate and show everyone that we love riding bikes.
Register your ride below to help us understand where people are commuting by bike, how far they pedal and where we need build better places to ride.

Learn moreSmart ways to ride
Riding a bike to work should be easy and fun. It shouldn’t be over complicated. Smart ways to ride has three simple steps to get you riding. Here’s step one:
Step 1 – Find your ride
You don’t need to have the latest and greatest bike. You will be surprised about what you can find in a family or friend’s shed or garage.
If that’s no good, you can also try secondhand or chat to your local bike shop about an easy ride.
Step 2 – Plan your ride
If you’re riding to work for the first time, you might like to find somewhere off the road like a bike path or shared trail. You can find these by searching the bike icon in Google Maps. Check out our guide on how to plan a bike route for more.
But don’t get immersed in the maps—get out there and find your way. It’s a good way to find new places to ride and build confidence.
Another hot tip is to chat to friends or work colleagues that live in a similar area. Maybe you could ride together?
Step 3 – Enjoy your ride
Get pedalling and have fun. It’s that simple.
As the nice weather rolls in there is no better time to enjoy actively commuting to work.
Take time to enjoy the simple moments – the wind in your hair, a crisp clear morning, the feeling of freedom, the green flow of traffic lights.
Not only will you save time and money, you’ll be happier and healthier for it.
