The annual Czech Embassy Bike Challenge lets you bike anywhere in the US to participate from September 28 - October 28!
The Embassy of the Czech Republic invites you to its fourth annual Czech Embassy Bike Challenge to celebrate the upcoming Czech Independence Day.
Cycle anytime during the challenge period from September 28 to October 28, 2023, in two categories:
I. Challenger
Cycle the 19.18 km long track from Georgetown to Great Falls, record your ride and compare your time with others!
II. Commuter
Not living in DC or want to cycle less than 19.18 km? The commuter is right for you! Organize a ride with your community or cycle by yourself during the challenge period and share the picture from the ride with us. If you can, add something Czech to your photo - can be a Czech flag, your favorite Czech sight – you decide! Please send the photo submissions with a short text to: czechembassydc@gmail.com or share the picture on Facebook or Instagram and tag us by using the handle @czechembassydc, hashtag #czechembassybikechallenge
PRIZES:
The top ten participants in the Challenger category will receive diplomas and tasty beer kits provided by the Challenge partners or a special Embassy gift bag for participants under 21.
