Bicycle Network: Your workplace
Ambassadors
Top level endorsement around Australia
A growing list of Ambassadors are helping to spread the bike riding buzz. If you are a Senior Manager or high profile member of the community who endorses the concept of riding to work, make National Ride to Work Day - 12 October 2011 an event on the company calendar, motivate and spread the word.
Ambassadors made the commitment to:
Make National Ride to Work Day (12 October 2011) a date on the company calendar and promote it well in advance through the intranet and staff newsletter.
Organise a celebratory breakfast or encourage attendance at one of the CBD breakfasts to be held around Australia.
Other initiatives can include:
* Setting a target for participation at all worksites
* Award prizes for the site with the highest percentage of participants
* Invite other work contacts and influential friends to promote the event in their own organisation
* Promote the event through professional associations
Ambassadors are listed on the Ride to Work website and may also receive the opportunity to speak to the local media about what they do to support bike commuting in their workplace.
