By getting more people riding, everyone benefits—we have healthier, happier people, organizations, and communities.  -Rachel R., workplace champion


  • 21% of all Daimler Oregon employees have participated in the Love to Ride program.

  • Spurred on by fun rewards, the team competition has been"fierce," with nearly 200 new riders who still cycle today.

  • Collectively, Daimler participants have logged over 57,000 rides, 643,628 miles, and saved 152,000 lbs of C02!

Ford

Ford Europe is the most recent auto-sector company to jump into the Love to Ride program. Three Ford sites enthusiastically participated in the recent ‘Biketober’ program.

A healthy competition ensued: Ford Deutschland won in the large company size category, with Ford Spain and Ford Britain coming in 5th and 7th places, respectively. Great going for their first time participating in a Love to Ride challenge!
