2016 MassCommute Bicycle Challenge

This past May, A Better City TMAs worked with our MassCommute colleagues to host the most successful MassCommute Bicycle Challenge (MCBC) yet. As has now become customary, MCBC rode into another record year. In just nine days, cyclists from all across the Commonwealth cycled over 156,000 miles, exemplifying the Challenge’s mission – promoting cycling as a healthy, inexpensive and eco-friendly transportation option. We’re very proud to announce that our member Mass General Hospital came in second in the 5000+ employee category.


In conjunction with the Challenge, both A Better City and Allston Brighton TMA held our annual bike tune ups and breakfasts at our member’s locations. These breakfasts are our most popular events throughout the year. We worked with local bike shops to do bike breakfasts at 21 member locations, tuning up a grand total of 214 bikes. These free bike tune ups are our way of rewarding our bikers for their sustainable commuting choice, making sure they’re safe on the road, and encouraging them to continue to cycle not just during National Bike Month, but all year round.
