Bicycles can change the world – at least a bit! Academic Bicycle Challenge (ABC) is the cycling campaign designed for staff and students of academic institutions. In recent years, more than 60 universities from all over the world participated, cycling hundreds of thousands of kilometres. This year the goal is to achieve even more!
During selected participation month, May, students and staff record cycled trips with free Naviki app. Various rankings in the app and on the ABC website allow comparing individual and common cycling activities globally and locally. Do students or staff cycle most? To which ranking position will our university climb? Are you ready for the challenge? Let’s find out!
Remember that there are bike service points at Canthia in Kuopio and at Carelia in Joensuu where you can repair your bike if needed before the challenge starts!
