GoGo VELO “Around the world in 42 days

“Around the world in 42 days” – the mission of the first GoGo VELO campaign in autumn 2024. For many people, summer is the ideal time for long bike rides, but autumn 2024 will also be a time for cycling: the first edition of “GoGo VELO” will be launched from September 20 to October 31 with the mission “Around the world in 42 days”. The aim is to cycle around the world as many times as possible (40,075 km) in 6 weeks! The main aim of the campaign – an initiative of ProVelo asbl and Klima-Bündnis Lëtzebuerg with the support of the Ministry of Mobility and Public Works – is to promote and establish cycling as a means of everyday transport. All participants are encouraged to use bicycles as a means of transport in their daily lives and leisure activities as often as possible. To motivate them, exciting challenges have been incorporated into the campaign (e.g. number of days cycling during a given period, or distance challenges). If successfully completed, participants will qualify for the draw to win great prizes! To take part, simply download the “Radbonus” application from your Appstore. From September, the national “GoGo VELO” campaign will be available on this application, where interested parties can register. During the journey, simply launch the app with the track button – from September 20 to October 31, the kilometers covered will be automatically added to the total mission and all available challenges. What’s more, all participants will be able to report on the state of cycling infrastructure via the app and thus contribute to its improvement – a commitment that really pays off!
