Team Leaders provide inspiration and motivation for co-workers.
You are vital to the success of Bike to Work Week!
To get your team started, first you need to decide who your team will be. You can register your entire office, or just your department and challenge another department!
Let everyone in your area know about Bike to Work, as teams are made up of everyone in the organization, not just those that already cycle. As the Team Leader you are there to help motivate and support your co-workers that already cycle, and to encourage first time or new cyclists to give it a try.
