Cycle to Work Day has multiple origins because it takes place on multiple days throughout the spring season.
Cycle to Work Day is believed to have been started by the League of American Bicyclist in 1956. Places throughout the United States, Canada, and Europe take part in this holiday because bicycling has become a popular way of travel and a popular way of exercise.
However, today’s holiday takes place in the United Kingdom.
According to cycletoworkday.org, Cycle to Work Day began in 2013 and has since grown into one of the most popular events in the United Kingdom. This day encourages adults to get on their bike and cycle to work just for one day.
They believe that cycling can help improve the lives of adults everywhere by bringing health and fitness in just one day. One day can make all the difference and can get people hooked on bicycle riding for the rest of their lives.
According to their website, in 2017 over 40,000 riders helped them celebrate the day and over a million miles were cycled as a result.
