Are you ready for the challenge?   The Bike the Triangle challenge encourages and rewards cyclists for choosing a healthy and active transportation choice. From May 1st – 31st, cyclists will earn points by choosing bicycling as their travel mode and tracking those bicycle trips on Share the Ride NC.  Cycling trips can include trips for commutes to work, errands, adventure, or health and fitness. Individual cyclists or teams of cyclists record each bicycle trip to earn points and get entered in drawings for prizes. But you don’t have to wait! Starting today, you can stake a claim in your team name and invite participants.   How To Participate
