If you agree that there should be more people out of their cars and riding bikes, then there are several ways you can be involved in OzByBike to help spread the message:


1) Ride!
The aim of OzByBike is to get people out of their cars and onto a bike. Not only is it great for your health and wellbeing, but it'll save you a lot of money (there is no such thing as a cheap car)! You'll also be able to feel really good about promoting a sustainable form of transport that doesn't pollute the environment.

2) Start a BUG!
Sick of being stuck in traffic before and after work/school? Always stressed after a long day in the office? Then start up a BUG in your work or study place. A BUG (bicicyle user group) is basically a group of people in your community who commute together by bicycle. BUGs are a great way for people to start commuting by bike, have a fantastic social atmosphere, and are a relaxing, enjoyable way of getting to and from work. Bicycle Victoria has a great site on how to start up a BUG in your community. way to encourage

3) Join OzByBike!
Cycling is a great social activity, and OzByBike welcomes any person willing to ride along, for 1 km or for 30,000 kms, and help spread the message. Click here to check out some of the options!

4) Host a presentation!
Throughout the 18-month expedition, OzByBike will be stopping in community centres, schools and workplaces to spread the word about human-powered transport. If you would like to host one of these presentations, please contact Anthony. Additionally, if a television station, radio station, magazine or newspaper in your area is interested in learning more about the journey, OzByBike would be more than happy to share some stories!

5) Sponsor the ride!
Please see the sponsors page for more details on how you or your company can support Oz by Bike.
