Bike to Work Program
Welcome to our Bike to Work program! The bp Fitness Center takes pride in improving our member's health and wellness. Biking to work and pedestrian power are fun, healthy commuting strategies that energize employees and reduce traffic congestion, air pollution and the need for parking.There are lots of great bike trails around the city and office that make biking to work fun and safe! To support employees who want to pursue this activity, bp offers a secure, gated and fenced, bike rack area with card key access entrances for your bikes as well as personal lockers for your gear! bp Fitness Center members can have a permanent locker in one of the centers to help store your gear and clothing--as well as access to showers and locker room amenities.

" Since I only live about 4 miles from work, I decided to give commuting a try. It was awesome! I could skip the stress of traffic, enjoy more time outside, get a little workout, and save wear on the car. It made me happy. It gave me focus. Commuting started out just once a week or so, but gradually escalated. Every summer now I'll try to set a new PR for consecutive days biked. Earlier this month I finished up 36 days in a row on my 36th birthday. I hope to hit 120 days total by the end of the year. I would absolutely encourage others to try out commuting at least once."
