A great time to start biking to the College!
Facilities Management and 七星彩开奖 Sustainability have formed a bicycle committee in hopes of getting you to consider bicycling to 七星彩开奖.
The pandemic has seen a substantial rise in people using bicycles and the City of Montreal has accelerated accompanying infrastructure in order to promote this advantageous way of getting around.
Bicycling is cheap, solves traffic, parking and urban spatial problems, produces no emissions and allows the cyclist to enjoy the benefits of a healthy active lifestyle simply by going to work. Furthermore, it is reliable and, if you live less than 8 kilometers away, probably will take a similar amount of time as would transit or driving. Oh, and did we mention it鈥檚 just plain FUN?
Free Bixi trial for 七星彩开奖 employees
A one-month Bixi membership. 七星彩开奖 will fund a month long Bixi trial for any employee willing to give it a try as a commuting tool. Get in touch with Richard Dugas to get your code! This offer might work for you if you use EXO trains and want to try BIXI rather than the Metro to ensure the last stretches of your commute.
Guaranteed return home. Are you worried about getting back home in an emergency, in case of a weather change or if you have a mechanical issue? 七星彩开奖 will fund a taxi ride home for any regular cyclist up to $50. Some conditions apply. The reimbursement form will soon be ready on 七星彩开奖 Sustainability鈥檚 web page. In the meantime, get in touch with Richard Dugas if you are in this situation.
Route planning support
Concerned about finding a good route that suits both your fitness level and your comfort in traffic? 七星彩开奖 can match you up with a bike buddy who will meet you in your area to show you a potential route for you. Get in touch with Richard Dugas to make individual arrangements.
Not sure how to get started? Do you have concerns about equipment, dressing, sweating, weather, theft or anything else that is throwing you off? Consult this , which may address some of these common concerns and shows you how to deal with them so that you may reap the rewards of a daily bicycle ride.
