Whether you're a biking beginner or a cycling champion, there are all sorts of reasons why involving your business in Bike Week 2021 could prove hugely beneficial to not only your customers but also to your brand.

What Are The Benefits Of Cycling?

There is a wide range of benefits attached to hopping on a bike, including:

Fitness: trading a sedentary commute for one that involves exercise has the potential to improve fitness levels and all-round health.
Mental wellbeing: time after time, exercise is proven to help reduce stress levels, lower anxiety and generally improve mental health, and all in all can help set you up for a great day at work.
Environmental: because swapping air pollution and rush-hour roads for a cleaner way of travelling can only be a good thing, right?

And it doesn't end there. Cycling is arguably more economical, eliminating the need for pricey petrol top-ups, and can also offer a fun social outlet.

For example: if you have multiple members of your team who cycle to work, why not encourage them to set up a cycling club for other colleagues, or sponsor them to take part in a cycling challenge for a charity that means something to your business?

Of course, whilst cycling to work might sound ideal it's not applicable to everyone - especially those who commute for hours each day by car or train.

However, even if your customers or colleagues are able to incorporate cycling into their spare time only, it can still make a hugely beneficial and enjoyable pasttime.

Why Should Your Business Get Involved In Bike Week 2021?

With Bike Week taking place every summer (with the event tipped to celebrate its 100th birthday in 2025), it's a great annual occasion for any UK business to tap into.

After all, reminding your staff or customers to make time for self-care and exercise is a great way to remind those who matter most to your organisation that you care about their wellbeing. Similarly, showing your business is interested in practically tackling environmental issues is a fantastic way to demonstrate you're taking your Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) seriously.

And also - it's fun! Taking part in an event like Bike Week is the perfect opportunity to encourage staff interaction and challenge your clients. Even if you can't get involved right now, there are also all sorts of other cycling awareness days, weeks and months scattered throughout the year (in fact, June is also Bike Month). And of course - fundamentally, the goal is to encourage cycling as a sustainable part of everyday life, meaning there's no time limit for taking part.

So with all that in mind: why not consider our wide range of branded cycling products, ideal for helping your customers and colleagues get into the saddle this summer?
