Sustrans: The Big Pedal

The Big Pedal is a massive cycle and scoot to school event. How massive? In the Big Pedal 2012 over 890,000 journeys were made by bike and scooter, by pupils at nearly 1,000 schools, representing a combined roll of over 310,000 pupils. And that was just to school!

 
How does it work?

The format is simple. The more pupils who cycle, the quicker your school races round a “virtual” course – and it’s all weighted so schools of any size have an equal chance to win.

Superheroes Fundraising Day

Kick off your Big Pedal on 28 February with our Superheroes fundraising day! Join thousands of children dressing up as superheroes for £1 to help Sustrans make the school journey safer, healthier and more fun across the UK. We’ll give you info, resources and fun stuff to help and there’s even a prize for the best photos uploaded – for full details, see our Superheroes fundraising page.

In 2013 we could pedal past one million journeys if we get over 1,000 schools to take part. Will you be there? As ever, there will be some fantastic prizes to be won, a fun theme and an exciting course to race around, plus schools will receive free resources to help with their entry.
