Bike to Work Week Corporate Challenge

Proving they are the corporation to beat, Lumos and Associates have taken 1st place in the Bike to Work Week Corporate Challenge(mid size business category). Their best day had a whopping 36% of employees riding a bicycle to work, and total milage for the week was 395. OUTSTANDING!

Second place goes to Resource Concepts Inc., who gave Lumos a good run. Midweek however, an RCI employee had other things to take care of. JoAnne Robben gave birth to a new baby boy. Congratulations JoAnne!

Redrock Family Dental has set the bar for future corporate challenges by taking 1st place in the small business category. Redrock’s best day had a terrific 43% of employees riding a bicycle or walking to work. Their total milage was 55.74.
Very impressive!

Congratulations and thank you to everyone who participated in the Bike to Work Week Corporate Challenge.

We’re still waiting to hear from some of our corporate challengers before we publish all of the results.

Bike to Work Week Starts This Monday

Bike to Work Week starts this Monday May,12.

To help bring attention to Bike to Work Week, Carson City Supervisor Shelly Aldean will hop on the back of my tandem and we’ll pedal together from her home on the north end of town, to her office on the west-side of Carson.

On the way we’ll stop by Lumos and Associates to meet up with other bicycle riders.

Lumos and Associates is a Bike to Work Week sponsor. They are donating the grand prize for the Bike to Work Week raffle (a KHS Urban-X commuter bicycle purchased with a very sweet “bro deal” from Big Dan at Bicycle Authority.Thanks Dan!) to be held on Friday, May 16 at the Firkin & Fox.

Lumos has a long history of community involvement. Here is little bit about this great company:

Lumos & Associates is a multi-disciplinary consulting firm, providing civil engineering, geotechnical engineering, planning, landscape architecture, environmental, traffic and transportation, surveying, GIS, materials testing, and construction administration services to clients throughout Northern Nevada and Northern California. Lumos is headquartered in Carson City, with additional offices in Reno, Fallon, South Lake Tahoe and Chico.

Lumos has a strong commitment to the environment and to the communities where their employees live and work. Recently, Lumos employees volunteered their time to design a pedestrian bridge over the Mexican Ditch in Carson City to complete an important trail link. Lumos supports Muscle Powered’s efforts to make Carson City a more walkable and bikeable community.

Thank You Lumos and Associates!

Anyone interested in joining us for our fun spin to Mrs. Aldean’s office can meet us this Monday, May 12 at Lumos and Associates, 800 East College Parkway at 8:10 a.m.

From Lumos our route will take us on the Carson City Freeway Multi-Use Path to East Long Street-Saliman Street-East Fifth Street and ending at West Fifth Street.

To receive a raffle ticket you only need to attend any or all of our Bike Month activities.
