City cycling in the joint municipality of Uelsen

City cycling made easy
What is it all about?
Pedal for 21 days for more cycling promotion, climate protection and quality of life! Collect kilometers for your team and the municipality of Uelsen! Whether you are cycling for business or pleasure, on vacation or at the weekend - every kilometer counts!
Who can take part?
Everyone who lives in our municipality, goes to school or kindergarten, works or is a member of one of our clubs. In other words, everyone from Uels! It doesn't matter whether you are a cyclist, commuter or occasional cyclist
How can I take part?
It's easy: at www.stadtradeln.de/sg-uelsen you can either set up a new team or join an existing team. Then simply enter the kilometers ridden or track them in the CITY CYCLING app and you're in. If you don't have an internet connection, you can enter the kilometers in the attached cycling log and hand it in at Uelsen Touristik. Registration is still possible after the start of the campaign period!
Who will win?
At the end of the campaign period, there will be a general prize draw among all participants. Prizes will also be awarded for the best team and the best individual cyclist as well as a special prize for the best school class and the best college. Attractive main prizes will be raffled off at district level.
