Logging your rides with Love to Ride is simple and can be done in three ways:
Â
 Â
 Â
There is a 72-hour grace period after the challenge to log any final rides from October, so be sure to log all your rides by 11:59 p.m on November 3.
Earn points every time you log a ride or encourage someone else to join*. Even a quick ride around the park or to the store will earn you points.Â
The more points you earn, the greater your chances of winning a prize. Who knows? That one trip could win you an ebike from Outback Bikes worth $2,599 or one of our other incredible prizes!

Whether you are continuing to ride or you are carpooling, vanpooling, riding transit or teleworking, logging commute alternatives is easier than ever with the Georgia Commute Options  MyGCO app. So sit back and enjoy your ride. Then, log your commutes and start earning great rewards and be automatically entered into drawings to win $$
Sync the MyGCO app to your Love to Ride profile so your bike rides work double duty. Every ride you log will earn you chances to win prizes in Biketober and future Love to Ride challenges, and will also earn rewards on the MyGCO app.
Â
Biketober is also a workplace challenge! This means that you and your co-workers can ride together to compete against other workplaces of a similar size in the metro Atlanta region.
Your points earned by riding and encouraging others will contribute to your workplace’s total. The workplaces with the most points will come out on top!
Example leaderboard
No workplace? No problem! You can still take part in Biketober if you don’t work or are retired and will be eligible for prize drawings. Or if you’re studying, simply join or register your university or school profile to compete on the workplace leaderboards.Â
If you want to ride with others, you can ride with your workplace, a social team of your choosing --or both!
You can ride in a social team of up to 10 people, including friends, family or co-workers.
Social teams will compete across 3 different leaderboards so you can focus on what inspires you most to take part in the challenge. There are leaderboards ranked by:
