Join the cycling competition! | Gdańsk University of Technology

We invite all employees, students and PhD students to the cycling competition "By bike to the univeristy", which lasts from April 3, 2023 to October 31, 2023. This is a good opportunity to change your transport habits and thanks to it reduce traffic jams and greenhouse gas emissions. Outdoor activity will also have a positive impact on our health.

Our campaign is aimed at active cyclists and those who think that commuting to work by bike, scooter or personal transport device (UTO) is not for them. Remember that the way to the university can be made in many ways, using more than one means of transport. Thanks to cycling infrastructure like e.g. bike racks or park&ride transfer car parks, we can make part of the route to the university on two wheels, and then change to SKM, tram or bus. Motivation to participate in the campaign are also practical and attractive gifts that will be available for completing 70, 150 and 220 rides to and from university. In addition, we will reward three participants with the highest number of rides and 1 participant with the longest distance made. This year, the awards will be given in two categories: employees and students/PhD students.

First edition of the competition, which lasted from May to September 2022, gathered 263 users who made a distance of 90,733 km. The distance is equal to cycling around Poland along its borders more than 25 times.

How to join?

First you need to register on the https://rowery.pg.edu.pl/en website, and then you can add your rides through MojaPG. Registration lasts to the last day of the campaign, but we encourage you to join it as soon as possible. People registered last year will not have to do it again.

After the campaign ends, we will invite all participants to the final gala with the participation of the University authorities, during which the bravest participants will be awarded.
