Congrats to everyone who took part in spring GBBW! With 241 registered bikers, UVic went the extra mile and pedaled past our previous record of 15,030 km and logged 23,141 km! In doing so, we saved 5,021 kg of GHGs.

Let's keep the wheels turning and make every week a #GBBW

#UVic is 9th in the world for @UN #SDG impact among universities, as reported in @timeshighered @THEworldunirank.

We are invested in building a better future, inspired by place, powered by people, and committed to our planet.
