Cycle to Work Day (UK stats)

Hi All!

We just had our Cycle to Work Day (UK) on WED 13 SEP and here are the stats ...

40.6K riders
1.13M miles (mean: 14mi each way)
238K kg CO2 saved
£510K saved (mean: £6.25 each way)
35M kcal burned (mean: 431kcal each way)
2372 retailers pledged
835 employers pledged

Cheers!

edit for maths being done ... seems that this only samples the hardcore people ... but interesting stats nonetheless.

awesome! I really wish one day people here will give up their diesel fume and gas addiction and pick up the cycling as their main transportation method. wishful thinking.

Cairo has it's charm, but cycling isn't one of them :/
