BIKE CAMPING

Take your bucket bike on a camping trip and send us a pic or video! It's such an epic way to carry all that gear!

TEST-RIDE

COMMUTER

Earn a COMMUTER badge by riding your bike to school and/or work 7 times to earn this badge. Since many of us work from home and don't have to commute kids to school - you can also choose any regular errand and consider it a "commute". Do it 7 times and then let us know!

30 DAY

Some of you joined Lisa in March 2023 for a RIDE EVERY DAY Challenge - no matter the weather - and earned your first badge. If not, choose a month or a 30-day stretch and bike every day - even just a little - to earn this badge. Then let us know!
