2026 Challenge: Monday, May 11th - Sunday, June 7th, 2026
The Bike Commuter Challenge sponsored by Keating Law Office is a month-long biking competition where Chicagoland organizations compete to see who can earn the most points by riding their bike for work related trips. It's free to participate! Just sign up, ride your bike, and watch the points roll in! You don't have to be an experienced bike commuter to participate. We've got resources to help you feel comfortable community by bike.
