To encourage Seattle residents to leave their stinky cars at home on occasion, the city is continuing its Walk Bike Ride campaign with a July Walk Bike Ride Challenge.
Starting July 4th and continuing through July 31st, Seattleites are invited to take the challenge.
- Simply replace two car trips a week with walking, biking or taking transit
- keep track your trips
- record them
- and you’ll be entered into a drawing to win some fabulous prizes
The prizes include an electric bike, a $250 REI gift certificate and a $175 Zipcar package
All of the details are here.
If you’ve already embraced leaving your car at home and you don’t make two car trips a week, you can enter the Thank You Drawing (currently a quarterly drawing for an iPhone).
It’s summer, go ahead and give it a try!

too bad if you already bike to work you’re only eligible for the thank you drawing
