Bike To Work Week 2007 has officially finished! Kudos to those who dug deep and participated this year. Here are some statistics for the week:

Total number of riders: 46
Total first time commuters: 3
Total kilometers pedaled: 3701.4
Total equivalent kg of C02 reduced: 888.36

Note that 888kg of C02 is roughly equivalent to:

1. C02 produced per-person on a return flight from Victoria to Toronto
2. C02 produced over one year by using a residential clothes dryer
3. C02 produced over one year by 18 sixty watt incandescent light bulbs


We are pleased to announce the following draw prize winners (all BTTW participants, all first time commuters and all participants that brought their bikes in to the Oak Bay Bikes Tune Up day were eligible):

First Time Commuters:
Nicole Ng - Free Tune Up from Oak Bay Bikes
Brian Bikadi - Free Tune Up from Oak Bay Bikes
Jason Cobham - Free Tune Up from Oak Bay Bikes




And that was only from one company!! just picture, the whole Victoria participated during the whole week and picture the whole province? the whole Country!?!?!
