BIKING
Biking is becoming a more common form of transportation. Below, learn more about how GVF works with commuters to educating commuters that biking can be a viable option to get to work. Additionally, GVF can generate a customized map identifying if trails are accessible to your worksite, making it easier for employees to choose this alternative to get to work.
LUNCH AND LEARN WORKSHOPS
Is your company interested in hosting a Cycling Essentials Lunch and Learn Workshop? GVF has partnered with local bike shops to provide education directly at the workplace to our partners. Topics that are covered include where to ride, bike maintenance and bike safety. For more information and to setup a workshop, contact Ashley Nuckles.
